Folsom Lake Water Level Rises Above Historical Average

FOLSOM (CBS13) – Folsom Lake has crossed an important drought milestone: lake levels are now above the historical average for this date.
El Nino-driven storms in our region have filled the lake up above the historical level of 507,878 acre feet for this date, to over 528,563 acre feet — 54 percent of capacity, or 104 percent of average.
Folsom Lake hit its historic low on December 5, 2015 when it dropped to 135,000 acre feet.
