 03/08/10-FIREWISE REPORT AVAILABLE

The Firewise Assessment Report was recently adopted by the WACC Board and is now available at the WACC website's Administration page:

http://www.lakealmanorwest.org/Firewiseassessmentreport.htm .

Members are encouraged to review the report, which describes the process and findings of the community inspection conducted during the autumn. The next phase of the Firewise project is the preparation of a mitigation plan to
deal with the issues noted in the Assessment Report. That work is currently underway and should be submitted to the WACC Board in April.
 

 02/28/10 -MODERATE FEBRUARY

  A reasonable amount of precipitation arrived in the Lake Almanor basic during the month of February, although at a far more      relaxed pace than in January. The Prattville monitoring site recorded 3.66 inches of precip   for the month, a mix of rain and water   from snow. That figure is a couple of inches less than the long term average for the   month, but it still brought our season total  precipitation up to 22.12 inches, or 90% of average.

  February snowfall on the west shore was 27 inches, just slightly less  than average for the month. However, when added to our   very heavy earlier snows, our season total now stands at 160 inches, or 152% of average.

  The disparity between accumulated snowfall and accumulated water is largely due to two factors: (1) our snowfall has tended   towards the "dry" side, due to cold temperatures, and (2) rainfall has been limited. Still, the 90% of average figure for total   precipitation puts the basin in a better position at this point than we have seen during the past several seasons.

  If we experience an average March, we would expect to receive something in excess of four inches of total precipitation, including  the water content of about 21 inches of snowfall. The general outlook is for a continued El Nino influence; this tends to bring  heavier rains to the southern part of the state, but the prognosis for our region is less certain.
