1. Water Supply Conditions Below Average with Operational Challenges The District is currently at 100% of average precipitation for the date, but snowpack stands at only 57% of normal. Despite receiving 416,000 acre-feet of full natural flow (130% of average), this water came early as rain rather than snow due to warmer temperatures. With only 5,000 acre-feet of space remaining before flood control requirements and limited forecasted precipitation over the next 16 days, the District faces potential flood control releases even though there may not be enough snowpack to fill the reservoir later in the season.
