Thanks to El Niño, California's Folsom Lake Is Surviving the Worst Drought on Record
California lake
levels are rising as fast as the stock market is falling, with Folsom
Lake east of Sacramento rising an astonishing 44 feet in just over a
month and Lake Oroville, the second most expansive water storage
facility in the state rising another 20 feet. Early December saw Folsom
Lake dwindle to the hydrological equivalent of a mud puddle. It reached
its lowest levels since they built the dam of around 349 feet above sea
level to fill it up. Today, it has risen over 44 feet to just under 393
feet above sea level.
