Somebody told me that Lake Mead is almost going dry - I read that somewhere. I was at Lake Mead June 14th and the Hoover Dam guide said it's full. You have been sadly misinformed. Lake Mead's water level is currently at 1141 ft above sea level, which is 88 feet below full pool, or 57% of capacity. Lake Powell's water level is currently at 3602 feet, which is 98 feet below full pool, or 49% of capacity. That's an awful lot of water missing, considering the immense size of both reservoirs. Both continue to be severely stressed due to an over-committed Colorado River and nine years of regional drought. I knew I'd seen it somewhere. |
