Lake Whitney on the Brazos is full. They generate electricity from that lake and they are running full power!!!
Last summer Lake Whitney was the lowest I’ve ever seen it, but it was refilled by just two rain occurrences this year. The Brazos has a very large catch basin, from the base of the high plains out towards Lubbock through the plains north of Abilene into central TX. Lots of groundwater runoff goes into the Brazos.
Lake Travis is sitting at near record low for July.

That is about 40 feet from full pool level as 681 is considered full.
