It’s been a dry January, so this is a good time to remind you of how we manage our #water during #flood season. Between October and April, DWR is required to operate certain reservoirs within the State Water Project for flood control under federal Water Control Manual Guidelines

In normal California units is about 16,000 acre-feet, enough to irrigate about 3,000 acres. Alas, this water would have been released to serve these same acres later, in the season when useful for the irrigation season. No relevance for fires. See: sjvwater.org/decision-to-du…

Releases from the dams were “excess water that downstream districts are allowed to hold in reservoirs to hedge against dry years.” sjvwater.org/trumps-emergen…

A major storm will arrive in California on Thursday, bringing a period of very heavy rain & risk of flooding esp. from SF Bay Area southward as well as strong gusty winds/isolated thunderstorms. Greatest concern, however, regards debris flow risk in SoCal wildfire zones. #CAwx
