Comments about ‘Water's rising nicely in reservoirs’

Yay! After all the years of drought, I'm glad there is some water to go around. As long as everyone is still conservative with their water supplies, like we are during the droughts, the water in Utah may be looking up!

Pineview is not 85% full. On Sunday it looked full, maybe a couple feet from full, and Causey is spilling. If Julander is right..."peak stream flows in northern Utah are still probably several weeks away"... then the water managers have made a mistake by not letting more water out of Pineview and Causey earlier in spring. The Ogden river is raging and will flood. To bad they didn't use the reservoirs as buffers for this peak flow that is yet to come.

The snow has to melt sometime. I feel sorry for mother nature since it is nearly impossible for her to meet the very high expectations of water managers. Perhaps the snow shouldn't melt at all so we can have even more water in our future.

I think Piute has more than he said too, it looks like it is almost full, and the Sevier river is running really high around Panguitch right now (upstream from Piute). And since when is the Sevier River in Southeast Utah? Last I looked it ran right up the center of the state, from south to north.
