Reservoir Monitoring Update

By January 10, 2021

TRWD continues to monitor reservoir conditions 24 hours a day.  Forecasters are becoming more confident that today’s precipitation will come in the form of snow, see National Weather Service (NWS) guidance below.

Richland-Chambers continues to discharge flood waters to bring the pool back to conservation.  See the table below for current discharge rates.  Updates to lake status and flood discharges will be posted here.

Please continue to follow the NWS and the River Forecast Center (RFC) for the latest information regarding weather and river conditions, respectively.

Please be advised that forecasts and projections are subject to change, and TRWD reservoir operations are based on observed rainfall conditions.  Updates to this blog will be made periodically as warranted.
