It will be interesting to see how the lake re-acts when it finally decides to rain....
The watershed is dry and will absorb any/all rainfall for quite some time. It will be months before rainfall affects lake level in any significant way. When the watershed is saturated, a small amount of rain will bring the level up exponentially. That's partly why they open the dam in June when there is just a little rain. They need to be mprte patient IMHO.
