The Natural Resources Conservation Service <http://www.wcc.nrcs.usda.gov/reports/UpdateReport.html;jsessionid=WWo16veV6F6IAJ-ohmA4Wxq4?textReport=Oregon&textRptKey=10&textFormat=SNOTEL+Snow%2FPrecipitation+Update+Report&StateList=10&RegionList=Select+a+Region+or+Basin&SpecialList=Select+a+Special+Report&MonthList=February&DayList=16&YearList=2015&FormatList=N0&OutputFormatList=HTML&textMonth=February&textDay=16&CompYearList=select+a+year> said there is only about 9% of average snowpack at Mount Hood, Lower Deschutes and the Sandy River Basin.

However they’ve had 101% of average precipitation — meaning it fell more as rain than snow.
