Anaconda Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Is Arizona getting decent rainfall this winter ? I know the spring monsoons are more important, but a decent snowpack is a good start. i live on the left coast, and we are getting pounded, like 200% of normal for late January. Could be a good year for those tiny Az bulls to grow some decent antlers ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brian390 Report post Posted January 22, 2017 For Flagstaff it has seen 12.12 inches of precipitation since September 1st. Normal is 9.11 inches and last year we were at 11.74 inches at this time. So Flagstaff is 3.01 inches of precipitation above average currently. For snowfall Flagstaff is currently at 51.5 inches and normal is 44.5 inches for this time. Last year Flag was at 61.5 inches for this same time. An additional foot of snow is coming by this Tuesday, so that will even increase how well Flag is doing this year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted January 23, 2017 Now all we need to worry about is not getting enough summer rain and all the undergrowth that pops up from pre-spring precipitation turning into a tinder box for fire season. If we get 90+ days of no rain headed in to the early summer, it will be tough to make it through camping season and the pre-monsoon lightning storms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
