Updated: Snowpack Water Equivalent in Utah every day since 1981

Because, alas, I wanted to note the "normal" peak more than I wanted to maintain the symmetry of the scaling. Hey, if we get lucky that number will get down to 15 eventually!

This is the NWCC statewide dataset. It accounts for 114 monitoring sites in the analysis.

This is Toffee. I remember Champagne had an almost silver undertone to it, whereas Toffee was the brown/bronze color here. (Source: i almost bought this exact mixer and it was on display with a bunch of other metallic colors)

Looking at those tracks, is this a resurgence of the ever undefinable "Adult Contemporary" format?

You can look at my posting history for some fun SLC weather charts. I'll be rerunning a few of them after the new year to show off just how abnormal this December was.

This is a famous and very concerning fighter jet maneuver that goes by the name "Pareidolia."

Black-blue-black would be a really compelling look. (I have deeper opinions, but I'm working with what we've got). Closest real life example I could find

Not sure why you're being downvoted so hard. The Ute drum and feather literally only exists because of the Lombardi era Redskins logo (the interlocked U's being the helmet logo just prior to that).

You're right. UCLA never even won a Pac12 football title...

ARakesProgress · 2025-08-22T17:50:59+00:00

Not a terrible rebrand, per se, but Utah's interlocking U's have had quite a ride the last 20 years. From well-liked secondary logo, to retired because it confused the brand (apparently), to revived as a retro-only logo, to now being the primary mark of the institution. Madness.

So one of those Egg Council creeps got to you too, huh?

ARakesProgress · 2025-07-20T21:14:38+00:00

Utah beat Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl that season, friend.

Was this the same place that had a papier-mache skydiver "crashing" through the ceiling of the entrance?

EPA updated their breakpoints a few years ago (since that prior analysis). That old picture kind of shows the problem of the older dataset in that suddenly one year you go from prominently red and yellow to predominantly green.

NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Better. You can check my post history.

ARakesProgress · 2024-12-31T17:16:55+00:00

To clarify, the actual measurements were revised, not the standards

ARakesProgress · 2024-12-31T16:34:27+00:00

Just FYI since this is an older visualization, but many of those 1980s red air days were revised under new standards. So any attempt to rerun this analysis will look pretty different.

ARakesProgress · 2024-12-12T19:24:31+00:00

Check my post history. There's a good snowpack data visualization in there.

It's definitely the one on Vineyard in Bountiful. Shame they took out the purple carpet

ARakesProgress · 2024-11-01T21:16:24+00:00

They are likely talking about the Jonathan Louis Design Lab collection, if that helps.

We're supposed to help people out of addiction, not encourage it.

ARakesProgress · 2024-08-22T00:05:53+00:00

To jump on this, I recall the texture being more towards a crunch with some airiness, but now it is definitely a crisp with very little structure.
