Tulloch Res Nr Knights Ferry Ca reservoir
Tulloch Res Nr Knights Ferry Ca
Tulloch Reservoir is located near Knights Ferry, California, and was created in 1955 by the Oakdale Irrigation District. The reservoir stores water from the Stanislaus River and provides hydroelectric power to the surrounding areas. The surface flow comes from the Stanislaus River and snowpack from the surrounding mountain ranges. The water from the reservoir is mainly used for irrigation purposes for the local agricultural industry. The reservoir also provides recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and camping. However, in recent years, the water levels have been significantly reduced due to prolonged droughts and increased water demands. Consequently, the reservoir's capacity to provide water for both agriculture and recreation has been impacted, and there have been discussions about the need for more sustainable water management practices.

About Tulloch Res Nr Knights Ferry Ca
Where does the data for Tulloch Res Nr Knights Ferry Ca come from?
Daily storage, pool elevation, and release rates are sourced from USGS, USBR, and USACE monitoring stations. Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
Storage observations are updated daily by the operating agency. The 15-day weather forecast refreshes throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- check the "as of" timestamp on the storage card.
What does the Hazard hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this reservoir, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
