About this reservoir

Lk Worth Abv Ft Worth

Lake Worth and Fort Worth are both located in Texas. Lake Worth is a man-made reservoir that was created in 1914 for flood control and to provide water to the city of Fort Worth. The reservoir is fed by the West Fork Trinity River and has a capacity of 33,840 acre-feet. Fort Worth, on the other hand, is a major city in Texas with a rich history dating back to the 1800s. The city is located in the north-central part of Texas and is known for its cultural attractions, including the Kimbell Art Museum and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Agricultural and recreational uses are prevalent in the area, with many ranches and farms located nearby. The region also has numerous parks and outdoor recreation areas, making it a popular destination for nature enthusiasts.

Inside the reservoir

The real shoreline of this water body, with a depth model scaled so the basin holds exactly its recorded storage. Drag to orbit, scroll to zoom, and use the slider to drain and refill it. Click anywhere on the basin for the modelled depth there.

How this is built. The shoreline is the National Hydrography Dataset polygon for this water body, matched to the dam by proximity and confirmed by comparing its area with the National Inventory of Dams surface area. Depth is modelled, not surveyed: the basin is shaped by distance from shore — deep in open water, shallow in the bays — and scaled so its volume equals the recorded storage. No national bathymetric survey exists for US reservoirs. Treat the shoreline, area and volume as measured, and the depth distribution as an informed approximation.

Above normal pool, water is shown rising within the normal-pool shoreline. Where it would actually spread depends on the surrounding terrain, which is not modelled here — a reservoir in a steep canyon barely widens, one on flat ground can spread a long way. This is a depth and volume figure, not an inundation map. Official inundation mapping for a dam comes from its Emergency Action Plan.

FAQ

About Lk Worth Abv Ft Worth

What is the water level at Lake Worth Above Ft Worth Reservoir right now?

As of September 19, 2026, Lake Worth Above Ft Worth Reservoir is holding 25,370 ac-ft, about 4272% of normal for this date. Pool elevation and the year-over-year trend are shown above.

Is Lake Worth Above Ft Worth Reservoir high or low right now?

Compare the percent-of-normal figure on this page: above 100% means storage is higher than the historical average for the date (a wet year), below 100% means lower (a dry year or drought). The daily-levels chart shows the current trend.

Where does the data for Lake Worth Above Ft Worth 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.
