Grim outlook for Colorado River flows amid meager snowpack
Forecasters warn the Colorado River will deliver about 43 percent of average runoff into Lake Powell this summer, the fifth lowest forecast in 54 years, despite Lake Mead remaining above levels that trigger cuts. The drought spans 18 years with warming climate and uneven snowfall affecting inflows from Arizona to Wyoming and 20 native reservations. Snowmelt will raise river levels soon, but overall supply remains tight for 40 million people and 6,300 square miles of farmland.
