Why is Lake Meredith so low with all the rain that fell in 2007?
Lake Meredith’s watershed extends to the west of the Lake and north of I-40. Unfortunately the rainfall that occurred over much of the state did not occur within the watershed. This has been the pattern for the last 7 years. Even in years where we may have had near normal rainfall totals, those rains have not been of the intensity and duration needed to generate significant run-off.
