Lake Logan At Dam Near Hazelwood reservoir
Lake Logan At Dam Near Hazelwood
Lake Logan is a reservoir located at the base of the dam near Hazelwood, NC, in North Carolina. The lake was created in 1945 by Duke Energy for hydroelectric power. The hydrology of the lake is primarily fed by the West Fork of the Pigeon River, which flows into the lake from the north. The Pigeon River Watershed provides specific surface flow to Lake Logan. The snowpack providers in the region include the Great Smoky Mountains and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Agricultural activities in the area primarily include farming and cattle grazing. The lake is a popular destination for recreational activities such as fishing, boating, kayaking, and swimming. The Lake Logan Episcopal Center also offers retreat and conference facilities on the shores of the lake.

About Lake Logan At Dam Near Hazelwood
Where does the data for Lake Logan At Dam Near Hazelwood 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.
