State of Emergency in Washington?

There is no shortage of water in the Pacific Northwest region i.e. the coastal area north of San Francisco through Oregon, Washington and British Columbia.

That's not what Oregon residents told us a couple of weeks ago when we were up there touring and camping along their coast.

Everything looked green and all rivers/streams were flowing full ... however residents told us that their mountain snowfall levels - that keep them green the rest of the year - are the problem. It appears that these levels are way down in Oregon, too ... just like in California.

Our relatives in Washington are telling us the same thing - inland mountain snowpacks are down everywhere in the western coastal states.
