@ActiveNorCal What is amazing is Trinity Lake continues to sit empty.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@markgrossi Very interesting they left out Trinity, which is only a third full, and the third largest lake in CA.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@RobMayeda Let's hope we get some here in Trinity. The lake leave is actually decreasing because of ROD (fish) and CVP requirements.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@NWSSacramento You missed Trinity... Oh, because it still sits empty.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@CAgovernor @GovPressOffice @GavinNewsom Let's get out of the drought first. Trinity Lake, our third largest lake is still way below normal.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@RobMayeda No problem. Feel free to ask anytime if you want pictures or anything. BTW, I have an ecowitt weather station, but I do not have a heater on the rain gauge, otherwise, I get good information for Trinity Lake.

@RobMayeda Here is a picture of Red Mountain (7,478) behind Granite Peak (8,094) in the Trinity Alps after the March 9th storm. The features on the peak were blunted. I have never seen that before, so yes there has been good snowfall. 7-24" forecasted tonight.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@RobMayeda Thanks, it is a oddity. Surprised New Melones is still behind with the rainfall that area has received. For
snowfall recharge, based on what we have received, I only see the lake making it to 75%, but that depends on what TRRP sends down the river and CVP pulls from the lake.

@CAgovernor @GovPressOffice @GavinNewsom @WadeCrowfoot @CalNatResources @CA_DWR @CDFAnews @CaliforniaEPA And meanwhile, California's third largest lake sits empty and barren... (taken 5:00 3/24/2023, Trinity Center boat ramp).

@JimPSP @US_Stormwatch There is 2' on the ground at lake level and 80" of snow at Big Flat (head waters to Coffee Creek). Another 2' predicted this weekend.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@ToThrive @US_Stormwatch The lake hasn't done much is the last couple of weeks because if we did get rain, it came as snow. I live next to the lake (Ridgeville) and complained that the earlier rains mostly went to the south of us. Once we get some snow melt, things are going to pick up.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@US_Stormwatch Things are looking up at Trinity, it is still really low, but the good news is there's 2' of snow at lake level and another 2' coming this weekend. The BFL gage, at the headwaters of Coffee Creek is now measuring 80" of snow. The lake is 1' below last year's crest.

[NWS Eureka @NWSEureka]

Significant travel impacts are expected across Northwest California this weekend through early next week due to heavy mountain snow. Keep up with the latest forecasts, watches, and warnings at https://t.co/RglzVDGJAw

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@RobMayeda Good news, got a good snow up at Trinity Lake. More than a foot in the last 4 days.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@flightradar24 Now it is heading to Korea.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@NWSEureka It was a balmy 23 degrees this morning at Trinity Lake.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@NWSEureka Snowed 2" at Trinity Lake.

[Richard Tippett @Reserves91]

@Weather_West This is the same thing that happened back in 1997. We had record breaking rains on New Years Day, then nothing rest of the winter. That is why I still am worried for water, most of it fell to the south of Shasta, Trinity and Oroville lakes, so we need more.
