Aquilla Lk Abv Aquilla reservoir
Aquilla Lk Abv Aquilla
Aquilla Lake is a reservoir located in Hill County, Texas. The lake was created in 1983 by damming Aquilla Creek, a tributary of the Brazos River. The purpose of the dam was to control flooding, provide irrigation water, and generate hydroelectric power. The lake has a surface area of 3,400 acres and a storage capacity of 82,900 acre-feet. The hydrology of the lake is influenced by several small streams and the Brazos River, which flows into the Gulf of Mexico. The lake provides surface water for agricultural irrigation and municipal water supply. It also supports recreational activities such as boating, fishing, and camping. The snowpack providers for the region are limited, as the area experiences mild winter weather with occasional snow and ice storms.

About Aquilla Lk Abv Aquilla
Where does the data for Aquilla Lk Abv Aquilla 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.
