Lake levels for San Carlos and Roosevelt due to recent floods?

Recommended Posts

With all that recent rain and flooding from 9-10 days ago did it have much impact on lake levels at Roosevelt and San Carlos?

No impact on San Carlos as most of the runoff went towards Roosevelt. San Carlos area had its own short-lived flood event but most people don't realize just how far the water has to travel to reach the Lake and most of that route is very sandy with big S curves that don't help. Current water level is 0.39%.

On a positive note a bunch of our dirt ponds filled back up and should be ready for restocking immediately.

Did any of these recent rains help San Carlos or Roosevelt?

San Carlos went back up about 1% now that the gates are closed, might add another 1% to that by the time its all said and done.

Roosevelt doesn't get much water from monsoons or huricanes... 99% comes from snow pack melt. Roosevelt has been at 44% for a couple weeks now. Im guessing that if it weren't for these floods it would have dropped to 41% by now

Plenty of flooding all around town even a couple of rescues but luckily no one hurt or no major damage. The gauge at the Peridot bridge below bashas peaked at 16,000 cfs.
