La Nina Update as of March 10th
La Nina continued to weaken through February (as expected) as reflected by the reduced strength of the colder than normal surface water temperatures anomalies across much of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. The sea-surface temperatures are forecast to continue slow warming in the coming months with the majority of the computer models predict a return to neutral temperature by May-June 2011.
This will allow the storm track through the northern tier of states to continue to be active. The Wasatch of northern Utah have had a bounteous winter with the snowpack currently running 140-150% of normal with the ski areas as of March 10th over 100 inches on the ground.
Therefore for the Sawtooth range of southern Idaho south into the Wasatch of northern Utah and into the Rockies of Colorado. So look forward to continue frequent storm activity at least through the end of the ski season in the middle of April.
