In today's Deseret News (February 7, 2008) a story about more snow coming mentioned the following:
"The bad weather has brought some good news. In a hydrologic outlook released Wednesday, the Weather Service said the January storms brought an accumulation 165 percent of normal. Southern Utah was already above its normal April 1 snowpack levels. More storms in February and March could refill reservoirs and provide drought relief."
It certainly does not say the "drought" is over, but it provides a positive outlook if we can continue to get more rain and snow over the next month or two.
Happy Snow Blowing! (Or shoveling!)

Did I get my share of snow yesterday.
I did not know that you had that big of a drought going on.
Sincerely
Tom
I didn't know that you had a drought there in Utah. Here on Cape Cod, we have had plenty of rain- especially this week!
I personally would consider this less a "drought" and more of a cycle, with us just being in one of the dry parts of the cycle. But the weatherman disagrees, so, there you go. I suppose it has to do with the amount of water in the reservoirs and all that. In the past few years we have seemed to be on the up-swing. Still, I don't think anyone will say "the drought" is officially over until we are a good 10 years in with good precipitation.
