Poll: Which of these extreme photos best captures this winter's wrath?

Winter 2018-2019 in photos
Winter 2018-2019 was the wettest winter on record in the United States due to relentless snow and rain.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reported that the winter precipitation total was 2.22 inches higher than average, hitting 9.01 inches.

Above-average to record-breaking snow and rain stretched from the West to the East Coast, making for the wet season.

In the West, the Sierra Nevada snowpack was higher than normal, and the unusually wet winter across California officially lifted the state out of an eight-year drought, scientists announced last week. However, the surge in moisture led to rounds of flooding, dangerous snowfall and mudslides.

One of the biggest stories was in February when the Russian River, running through the northern half of the state, crested at 45 feet, completely flooding the town of Guerneville.

The 4,500-person town was essentially turned into an island with all roads in and out flooded.
