General:  It gets complicated.  We currently have 5" of snow on the ground, and our 4-year CoCoRaHS average is 14.44 at this point in the year.  For January, we have received 12.7" and expect to receive 27", based on my 26 year uncalibrated measure.  Admittedly, we're early in January.  By the end of January, our 26 year average is 67.2" total snow received, and we have received, for this snow year, 24.6".  This is low, for sure (42" low), and yet we've had 9.36" of snow-melt equivalent or rain since Oct. 1.  Our 5 year average for this is 7.76".  So, are we "normal" or low?  Based on snowfall we are woefully low, but based on gauge catch, we're doing okay.  It gets complicated!
Agriculture:  The winter wheat is looking okay, so far.  We are finally getting some cold weather, and that may be a problem with the low snow-pack.
Energy: We're in the low production phase, right now.  Yesterday we consumed 38.88 kWHR, and created .38 kWHR, likely because it remained cold and we have snow on the panels.  
Fire: low fire risk right now.
Plants/wildlife: I think our flock of robins have finally flown.  Chuckers, magpies, pine siskins, juncos, and chickadees are hanging around.
Water:  Pretty good, but snow pack isn't!
