“That is, if they keep it in the reservoirs.”
They’re letting it out as fast as they can right now as the water year begins to shape up favorably.
There’s only so much room behind those dams, and they’ve been in good shape for a couple of consecutive years.
Full is full.
Even as low as Lake Tahoe (6400ft) they’re expecting 4-5 feet of snow.
That’s debilitating snowfall. Paralyzing.
A shame more rain doesn’t get over the sierra nevadas into the colorado basin where lake mead/powell water levels keep falling every year.
