Poster Handle Anonymous Coward
Post Content
Based upon the evening press conference ... I put my notes in a post above ... it looks like people have a solid 2 days (from this afternoon), maybe 3, before "CRISIS" time may hit.

No need to "Panic" yet ... but do need to pay attention to what they say tomorrow night after they have examined the Spillway.

If I were in the area I would watch the lake levels ... and "IF" they are actually approaching 900 feet, say 895 feet, THEN I would be getting away from any downstream location ASAP (gives you a couple of days to pack up stuff you may want to take with you).

Link to the hourly data ... you have to hit the "Latest" blue type below the numbers to actually get the latest hourly data. The posted data runs about 2 hours behind.
[link to cdec.water.ca.gov]

(current lake level at 7 PM PST was 859.69 feet, up from 854.95 feet at 12 noon which is when they shut down the Spillway)
