Lost Ck Res Nr Jacksboro reservoir
Lost Ck Res Nr Jacksboro
Lost Creek Reservoir Number 1 is a man-made reservoir located in Jacksboro, Texas. It was created in 1962 by the Brazos River Authority for the purposes of flood control, water supply, and recreation. The reservoir is fed by Lost Creek and several smaller tributaries, and its hydrology is heavily influenced by rainfall and surface flow. Agriculture and recreational activities, such as fishing and boating, are common uses of the reservoir. The surrounding area is also home to several snowpack providers, which contribute to the reservoir's water supply. Despite its importance, Lost Creek Reservoir Number 1 has experienced a decline in water levels due to drought conditions and overuse, prompting conservation efforts and water management strategies.

About Lost Ck Res Nr Jacksboro
Where does the data for Lost Ck Res Nr Jacksboro 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.
