Californian Reservoirs Fuller Than In 1977 September 23, 2015 tags: california By Paul Homewood http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cdecapp/resapp/getResGraphsMain.action Inevitably, water levels are extremely low in California’s reservoirs, but how do they compare with the last major drought in 1976/7? http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/time-series/us/4/0/pcp/12/8/1895-2015?base_prd=true&firstbaseyear=1901&lastbaseyear=2000 Surprisingly, perhaps, only one, Perris Lake, actually has less currently compared to the same date in 1977, and this is only a tiny dam. Two others, Millerton and Exchequer are about the same. The others currently hold more water, in most cases substantially more. ( New Melones did not open till after 1977.) http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cdecapp/resapp/getResGraphsMain.action In total, water storage in all California reservoirs stands at 54% of average, compared to just 35% in 1977. (New Melones and the other new dams mentioned account for 571 of the current total of 12761 x 1000 Acre-Feet, so make little difference). http://cdec.water.ca.gov/cgi-progs/reservoirs/STORAGEW California’s rainfall recovered in 1978, and it remains to be seen whether the same happens this winter. However, California’s water reserves are evidently in a much better position than they were back in 1977. https://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2015/09/23/californian-reservoirs-fuller-than-in-1977/
