  • Welcome back River Watchers! In this report, the heat of summer takes hold, Vegas breaks new records, the Colorado River is being lost to evaporation, and the Basin States continue working towards post-2026 operational agreements. As always, we'll take a look at our current water levels today at Lake Mead/Hoover Dam and Lake Powell/Glen Canyon Dam.

      Outstanding! Thanks for that feedback 👍 The last time Lake Mead was full was July 1983 at 1,225 ft and came close again around October 1998 at 1,215 ft. Definitely a lot of water missing at 1,064 feet especially considering the V shape of the canyon!

      Interesting as I saw there was a "heat dome" going on over there too. Supposedly that same system is going to bring some rain chances out here so it must be a strong one.

    Thanks for video. The real test is in times of water scarcity - or the absence of abundance. Federal compensatory funds may offer "liquidity " but that is not quite the same as water.

      Thanks for checking out another update! Well said, the payouts just move the goalposts out to 2026 but don't solve much unless they become permanent. Unfortunately by the time all these temporary deals are made it will be nearly 2026 already!

    It’s less of a climate problem and more of a mismanagement problem.

    • @johnstone7697
      @johnstone7697 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The early hot spells and the switch from El Nino to LaNina are both climate issues that negatively impact a water system that is already under a lot of stress from excessive usage. So, both play key roles.

      Amen! The “managers” will help implement restrictions and cry about the lowering levels all while releasing the same amount of water or more than in past good years through the dam.

      Agree! It's really NOT for the majority of people, especially those who hate it and want grass lawns, backyard pools, or set their A/C at 65 all summer. But there is good farmland around the Overton Arm and the desert holds its fair share of treasures and opportunities for those who can brave it... 🤠
      I won't say any more because there already are too many people here who hate it and want to change it to Dubai or East LA as fast as possible, and our city officials are 💯 on board with that

    Ahhh you make a lake in the desert humm and the lake above it is full and then you have a dam just letting water go. The lake las vagus is full another desert with rich people with huge boats humm sounds like if your not rich you will die.

    • @mojo.adventures
      @mojo.adventures  5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      True! The reservoir above Lake Mead is filling fast but at Lake Mead it looks like we're about to have another drought catastrophe. The information can be presented in any number of ways. That's just what I'm here to show👍 Gotta look at the whole situation. You're right about LLV also... since Basic Water went bankrupt they have to buy water from the city of Henderson to fill the vanity lake. So much for a "shortage" I guess. We have a video on that called "Behind the Drought" if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/tNiVT5i4oXs/w-d-xo.html
