Despite numerous difficulties, surveyors were able to measure 18 of the 22 snow courses in the Tuolumne and Merced basins. Prior to the storm, the snowpack was about 15-20% of average; after the storm it is 75-85% of average for both basins.

Here's a link for the statewide daily Snow Water Content report.

Yosemite and the Central Sierra are doing slightly better than the Northern Sierra/Trinity, with both at about 50% of the April 1st averages. The Southern Sierra is not faring as well, with only 36% of April 1st snow water content to date.

Year-to-date averages are 69/75/57 for Northern/Central/Southern Sierras, respectively. Not great, but not too grim, either.
