The fifth and final survey of the season at Phillips Station near Lake Tahoe, Northern California, recorded 47 inches of snow depth and a snow water equivalent of 27.5 inches, the Department of Water Resources said. 

 That’s 188% of average for the location near Lake Tahoe.

 Blizzards pounded the Sierra Nevada all winter, burying the towering mountain range in massive amounts of snow. On the eastern side of the range, for example, the Mammoth Mountain resort reported nearly 57 feet of snow at the summit during the season.

 The Ice Age cometh.  Soon.

    When summer isn't enough to get rid of winter up north you'll know that 'soon" has actually arrived.
