Dec. and Jan. were dryer than normal, without much snow. Now in Feb. we are seeing a lot of snow. Not much moisture in it, but normal. Normally the creek flows past our house and waters the cows. The creek hasn't run water for the last two years. Dams are dry or low, some dugouts have water that is undrinkable. The TDS number last summer was in the 7000 to 9000 numbers. We were in the drought designation of D3 the last two years and we will be there again if things don't change.
