CALIFORNIA, USA — Major winter storms have dumped quite a bit of rain and snow across Northern California.
The state's reservoir averages for Tuesday show Oroville at 59% of average Folsom at 94%, Don Pedro at 76%, New Melones at 76%, and Shasta at 50%.
However, reservoir numbers don't make significant movement when major storms have moved through the area. It's when the snow begins to melt in the late spring and early summer that area reservoirs will reveal just how much water content is in the snowpack.

- Palisades Tahoe -- 60"
- Sugar Bowl -- 58"
- Boreal -- 52"
