The snow pack is really the main reservoir for Northern Colorado water use. Here is a link to the relevant graph for the Colorado River. The different colors represent different years.

Arizona is like Nevada with inferior water rights. If there's surplus water after Colorado, California and Mexico take the water they're entitled to, then Arizona and Nevada can take their allotment of water - to the extent it's available. After Arizona and Nevada take their full allotment, any extra water is used by California.
