🏜💧Lake Mead is currently 5.5 feet above the level where the older turbines of Hoover Dam have to be taken offline due to low water pressure. Water level is dropping by approx 1 foot every 10 days. That makes October 2nd the approximate start of power output reductions. ⚡️💧🏜 If they drain Lake Powell to save Lake Mead, that just moves the issue upstream to Glen Canyon Dam's generators. ⚡️ #ColoradoRiver #waterwars #LakeMead #HooverDam #LakePowell #GlenCanyonDam #hydroelectric #Utah #Arizona #Nevada #Southwest
