Snow water equivalent (SWE) is the amount of water contained within the snowpack. SWE varies widely from year to year. In 2011, late-season snowfall caused the snowpack to reach the greatest depths since 1975. Melting of this snowpack led to severe flooding across the Great Plains in the summer of 2011.

Observed temperatures are generally within the envelope of model simulations of the historical period (gray shading). Historically unprecedented warming is projected during the 21st century. Less warming is expected under a lower emissions future (the coldest years being about 3°F warmer than the historical long-term average; green shading) and more warming under a higher emissions future (the hottest years being about 16°F warmer than the historical long-term average; red shading).

Observed data are for 1900–2014. Projected changes for 2006–2100 are from global climate models for two possible futures: one in which greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase (higher emissions) and another in which greenhouse gas emissions increase at a slower rate (lower emissions). Temperatures in Arizona (orange line) have risen about 2°F since the beginning of the 20th century. Shading indicates the range of annual temperatures from the set of models.
