California’s snow pack is essentially another “reservoir” that is able to store water in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Graphing these things together can give a better picture of the state of California’s water and the current conditions of drought. The recent atmospheric rivers have increased storage in reservoirs and snow in California immensely.
Click here to view interactive version that is updated daily.
Converting snowpack water content (measured in inches of water at 120 different snow sensor sites in the Sierras) into a total volume of water was done by correlating snow sensor data with an estimated the volume of the Sierra snow from 2016 journal article (Margulis et al). See link for more info.
Sources and Tools
Snow and reservoir data is downloaded from the California Data Exchange Center website of the California Department of Water Resources using a python script. The data is processed in javascript and visualized here using HTML, CSS and javascript and the open source Plotly javascript graphing library.

Why is a Thai-born, korean based artist singing a song in korean assigned to "Japan" as a country of origin? Especially when the band she is in is under Korea.

It's a bad implication though.
Wood burning causes CO2. As does burning coal, which occurred in individual homes, not just factories. Low income people had access to fires long before industrialization. Obviously that's not reflected in the graph - likely because it's hard to track that - so the data is suspect.

Why do you pay extra for calling foreign numbers?
Ironically if I call foreign EU numbers from my country ( Croatia ) they’ll charge me some ridiculous price like 0.6€ per minute, bit if
i ride like 50km and cross border to
Slovenia and connect to their network all my calls within EU are free

Reply to comment by Adventurous-Text-680 in CEO pay has skyrocketed 1,460% since 1978: CEOs were paid 399 times as much as a typical worker in 2021 by sillychillly
This isnt rocket science. The minimum wage is just as difficult to pass aparently because it hasn't budged in 30 years.

Charlie wheeler is connected to both Ross and Joey separately on the chart. Should be in the middle some where. There was literally several episodes about it.

Crap you're right she never kissed Monica. They did have an intimate massage though lol.
Wait, Rachel has kissed everyone! She dated Joey and Ross, made out with Chandler in college, had Phoebe kiss her, and made out with Monica!

This is completely irrelevant. Ukraine is a sovereign nation, member of the UN, recognised as such by Russia and entitled to its territorial integrity. Russia has also signed a formal agreement never to move militarily against Ukraine and filed it with the UN.
The annexations and invasions are all illegal. There is no way around this.

>Both graphs are necessary to understand the whole problem. The suggested one and this one. A third one with income distribution over the world would aso be good.
Exactly. People need to understand both relative (per capita) and absolute shares of emissions. They also need to understand, you cant compare things exactly 1:1, but that relative and absolute shares are useful to look at on national and income group basis.
After that one can ponder as to the reasons for discrepancies, often they are related to energy/economic trajectories. Countries with a lot of fossil fuels stand separately for example. Not the only, but maybe the biggest separator when it comes to relative shares. Then we have a lot of cultural factors.

They could, but I can only use like 10/15 gigs in europe outside of France
And I pay extra when calling non French numbers so it wouldn't be great

Yeah came here to say the same. Given that your French subscription works in Germany, wouldnt it be possible for a German to subscribe to a French mobile operator?

So was the Soviet Union, so was Yugoslavia, Sudan, etc. Good to hear that at least you consider Taiwan part of China, so no need to get involved there, right?
