[QUOTE="Rmc, post: 1764357, member: 39072"] Lake mead is up for the first time in three years for a number of reasons. Largest rainfall in the drainage in over ten years. This explains the late summer rise which rarely happen. Since most water comes from snow fall and spring run off. Another contributor is conservation down stream has reduced demand . Another factor is that lakes such as Flaming Gorge drainages received near or above snow fall moisture, so they where able to release more water downstream to be closer to the required 10 year average down stream water requirements of the 1922 agreement. But most of that water didn’t end up in lake mead it is being held in lake Powell. [/QUOTE]
