This is pure disinformation. I've already tried to educate you as a KZbin poster. When you post disinformation, it could negatively effect the environment and the very important attempts to soften the drought effects. PLEASE for the love of water, learn the source of Lake Mead WATER! Thanks dude.

It would be cool to see, but I can tell you from first hand that when the water is as full as it was in 1983 it’s just as inconvenient to go to the lake as it was last year in July when it was that low. The ultimate goal would be for the lake to be what is basically considered full like it was back in about 1999. In 1983 the lake was actually considered overfull as the lake is not supposed to spill into the Spillways.

l'm old enough to remember our local weir with an island, and over time it was wasn't was wasn't an island, and the worse it got was when you could almost walk from one side of the "lake" to the other, and it filled up again a couple of years later. It's just the weather cycle. Ps. When the Colorado River was nearly stationary, l was telling everyone it was on holiday in Sydney Australia at the time and when it got sick of flooding all the homes built on a flood plain, it would return home, looks like it made it's way back after its big adventure.

Why not recover the boats and clean the lakebed instead or leaving them there?

@jessiesdroneadventures7464 Жыл бұрын
8News now asked the NPS " national park service" why they dont remove the boats.........this was the response "As vessels continue to surface, park staff document their locations and assess for potential hazards or threats to environmental or human safety. But it is not standard park policy to remove a boat from the lake due to it being a labor-intensive, multifaceted and costly process.”

The total generating capacity of the Hoover Dam is 2,080 megawatts and its average annual energy output is about 478 megawatts. By using solar (possibly floating on the lake itself) pump water upstream to those two dams, we could increase their output many times, with months of storage. It would also increase the amount of water in the lake.

I'm just surprised they didn't use the low water level to clear some of the junk and safety hazards. I mean, come on, a speed boat sticking out like this might look impressive, but it should be removed! And there are a bunch more that could have been removed.

How long into summer should we expect snow melt to continue to add to lake height?
@jessiesdroneadventures7464
@jessiesdroneadventures7464 Жыл бұрын
Excellent question! I read an article from the hill that said the snowmelt usually starts to stop around July, but this year we had way more than usual, so it could last a little longer, and with monsoon season here the rain could add a little to it. Between Snowmelt and rain.....I believe they could continue to go up until mid September

I also live in Phoenix, and like a lot of people I have been concerned about the water levels of Lake Mead. Still a long way to go, but I enjoyed seeing the before and after photos you posted. By the way, when you first arrived at Rogers Spring, I was thinking how tempting it would be to jump in the water on a hot day , until I saw the warning sign about brain eating amoeba’s in the water. Yikes! 😬

@@jessiesdroneadventures7464 they installed that new low water pipeline in 2016 I believe, and it went active in 2020. Within 2 years water levels hit all time lows and within 6 months of that going viral we mysteriously have a miraculous resurgence. Not saying the 2 are connected, but it’s very odd at the least. Anytime they don’t want you to see something there IS a reason, good luck tracking it down.
