yes....they only say the spillway will have to be used 1 or 2 more times more likely 2 or 3....they can only drop the lake to around 830-835ish using the spillway...

2 inches of rain fell at the dam last storm while 3-5 fell in the basin in the mountains..some of that snow which could have replenished what snow has melted so far

after perhaps 1/4- 1/3 inch in the basin today...looks like a very weak system monday morning and a little stronger one tues-weds

We got 1” this am North of Reno. Already 38 degrees though. My place of business is directly impacted by another slow motion train wreck:

Silver Lake is a “dry” lake and typically only holds seasonal runoff. There is no outlet.
