Hello Everyone,
As you’re likely aware, Lake Arrowhead’s water level is currently lower than usual. The reason for this is to allow the forecasted precipitation (and the potential resulting upstream water releases) to refill the lake, thereby minimizing spillage over the flashboards relative to the level if it wasn’t lowered. If this spillage is substantial enough, flashboard failure will occur. We aim to avoid flashboard failure to the extent possible, so as of yesterday, the lake level reached the lowest allowable level per the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Please reach out with any questions.
Regards,
Matt
