Livingston Res Nr Goodrich reservoir
Livingston Res Nr Goodrich
Livingston Reservoir is a man-made lake located near Goodrich, Texas. It was constructed in the 1960s to provide a reliable water source for the city of Houston. The reservoir covers over 90,000 acres and has a capacity of 1.2 million acre-feet of water. The hydrology of the reservoir is mainly fed by the Trinity River, which provides a year-round flow of water. There are also several smaller streams and creeks that flow into the reservoir. The water in the reservoir is used primarily for municipal and industrial purposes, but it also provides water for irrigation and recreational activities. The surface flow of the reservoir is regulated by the Trinity River Authority, and the snowpack provider is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The reservoir is a popular spot for boating, fishing, and camping, and it also supports a thriving agricultural industry in the surrounding area.

About Livingston Res Nr Goodrich
Where does the data for Livingston Res Nr Goodrich 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.
