[pct-l] sierra snowpack

We are now about tied with snow conditions for the 1976-1977 year drought,
http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cdecapp/snowapp/swcchart.action, with no change in
the pattern in sight.

The La Nina pattern roughly makes south of Tahoe dry and north of Shasta
wet.  http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2011/20111020_winteroutlook.html.
If it continues we'll have an early start to the season in California.
