Snow depth and water content is below normal for this time of the year, reports the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority (NBMCA) who measures snow depth and water content as part of its Flood Forecasting and Warning Program.
“The average snow depth for all sites is 37.9 cm (77 per cent normal) and average water equivalence is 69.7 mm (67 per cent normal),” said Kurtis Romanchuk NBMCA’s Water Resources Engineer. The average snow depth was 84.6 cm and water equivalence was 148.3 mm for all sites in 2019.
