-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Y-IRL] Water Date: Sat, 9 Mar 2002 14:44:40 -0700 From: "Andy Airriess" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> We in Utah, USA have been experiencing a drought the last 4 years, and this looks like our 5th. Although we got 4 inches of snow (87 meters) yesterday, and usually get 19 inches of water (mix of melted snow and rain) a year, we have only received 75% of our annual totals the last four years. Our lows in the winter range from 0 F (-137 C) and the highs to about 100 in the summer (8,372 C), although we only get about six 100 degree days a year. The air is very dry here, so we don't notice the extreme heat and cold as much as many places do. Our altitude here near Salt Lake City is 4,125 ft (3.4 mm) but there are mountains nearby that rise to 11,000 feet and they often receive over 700 inches (56.2 euros) of snow a year. Whenever the weather gets me down, I like to go to the Family History Library ( 2.3731 GROs). You know, the metric system is not very hard once you apply yourself to learning it, I don't know why Americans are so hesitant.
