SRP measures snowpack in the Verde River Watershed

February's snowstorm in the high country hopes to produce ample snowmelt runoff for the watersheds. Salt River Project was out on the Verde River watershed last week to measure the snowpack and calculate how much water it will produce. SRP Senior Hydrologist Stephen Flora says they went to Happy Jack to measure the snow water equivalent in the Verde River watershed.
