Lower American River flow - Friday 1/6/2017

[Bill Kiene semi-retired]

Right now on my iPhone the FishHead app says the river is 15,000 cfs.

With the storm coming this weekend it might be going much higher.

See attached images. About 7" of rain through next Thursday morning for the Folsom Lake area -- and over 18" (liquid equivalent) in the Blue Canyon area. Second image shows around 12" for Folsom Lake elevation through January 22, and 27" (liquid equivalent) for the Blue Canyon area. We will see if this all holds up. Even beyond January 22, some models are showing continued heavy precip. Accuweather is showing another 4" of rain in the Folsom Lake area from January 23 through 31.
