Lake Mead in span of 2 years
We’ve had a home about 1-2 miles from Lake Mead for over 20 years. Its been our playground, so we watch it carefully. Over that time period we've seen the amount water decrease very gradually; and one year it even went Up about 8 feet. Until this past year when it mysteriously decreased more than any year. Temps are the same as always, so seems obvious they are releasing it on purpose. 🧐
They try to say its more water usage in the valley, but the amount of homes that get their water from fresh underground springs is High!
There are over 269 springs in Clark County!
Whats really going on?
This is my thinking also....all of the dams that are mentioned as potentially having a problem...this particular one has an underground tunnel. So I believe they ARE purposely releasing this dam slowly to a less devastating level should/would something "happen" to it. Very interesting.
Have thought of that too. It is very intetesting.
