Basically within about 15 miles of latitude, you go from the occasional plow/drift remnant to a solid 1 to 2+ feet of snowpack. Not a slow transition zone at all.

Based on how deep the snowpack is, AND how water saturated it is, boy do we ever need a SLOW melt this Spring, or else flooding could be really bad this year (Not to mention that a slow melt will keep those lifts spinning even longer!)
