• This graph shows normal fluctuation

• The average precipitation of the area is increasing over time

• This area is getting dryer over time

• This graph does not show a normal fluctuation

Select all that is TRUE about this graph

• This graph shows how much liquid water WA received from snowfall

• The average snow water equivalent remained the same over time

• WA is getting less average snow water than in previous years

• It is normal for snow water equivalents to vary year by year (have highs and lows)

From this graph we can conclude...

• temperatures are decreasing over time in Mississippi

• Mississippi is wetter now than in the past
