Researchers from Washington, Idaho and Oregon collaborated to explore the water year across the Pacific Northwest.
SEATTLE — Researchers released their 2023"" this month, examining how Washington, Oregon and Idaho were impacted by precipitation and temperatures.
"Even though our precipitation wasn't that anomalous and when people tend to think of drought, they think of less precipitation than normal, we saw how much temperature can really impact our water supply and that was really evident in 2023," said Karin Bumbaco, the interim Washington State climatologist.
"What it is really trying to do is connect our weather and our seasonal variations to actual impacts we're seeing at different centers across the Northwest," Bumbaco said."What does the lack of snowpack mean for drinking water, our fisheries, et cetera?"
