Rush lake on the decline!

[jason morton]

Went out friday after work and was surprised to see that the water has dropped considerably. Kenny was packing up from a gusty session and my session was uneventful btw. I really hope the runoff puts more water in rush or we will be in big trouble this spring/early summer for south wind riding. BOO HOO!

Granted it's not the rush valley waterbasin, but the snowpack hasn't really started its major melt off... At least according to the graph above the Upper Colorado snowpack is just beginning its major melt now... I wish the aquifers were connected underground... We need a heatwave where it all melts at once and it doesn't have time to seep elsewhere.

But no kidding huh!? Boo hoo is right... We sure need Rush back.

The numbers below if you click on the snowtel graph aren't too promising...Really bad march and april... Other months were above avg. &@*!^@*&#)!
