What this means

At 6,114.43 ft, Jordanelle Reservoir is below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 26.82 ft below the median of 6,141.25 ft for mid-October, based on 34 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 6,127.69 ft (−13.26 ft).

The level is falling, down 1.10 ft over the past week. With the water still dropping, the shoreline keeps moving out. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 6,114.43 ft and 6,119.70 ft.

Many reservoirs reach their low point of the year in fall, before winter rain and snow start the refill.

Swimming and boating at Jordanelle Reservoir

Low water changes a lake fast for boaters. Some ramps get shorter or close, docks may be moved, and rocks and sandbars that are usually well under the surface come within reach of a prop.

If you swim, pick a spot with an easy way out, and remember that drop-offs move as the level changes.
