Grapevine Lk Nr Grapevine reservoir
Grapevine Lk Nr Grapevine
Grapevine Lake is located in northern Texas, near the city of Grapevine. The lake was created in the 1950s by the US Army Corps of Engineers for flood control and as a source of water for the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The lake is primarily fed by Denton Creek, and its hydrology is managed by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The lake is a popular recreational spot for fishing, boating, and swimming, and it also provides water for agricultural uses in the area. The surface flow of Grapevine Lake is also important for the region's water supply, and the lake's snowpack providers help to regulate the water levels throughout the year. Overall, Grapevine Lake is an important resource for the community and a valuable part of the region's history and hydrology.

About Grapevine Lk Nr Grapevine
Where does the data for Grapevine Lk Nr Grapevine 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 below 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.
