Pineview Reservoir
As of August 31, 2026, Pineview Reservoir is holding 18,424 acre-ft of water — 20% of normal storage for this date. Storage data refreshed throughout the day.
Pineview Reservoir
Pineview Reservoir is a man-made lake located in Northern Utah, USA. It was created in 1937 as part of a project to improve irrigation and flood control in the Ogden River watershed. The reservoir is fed by the Ogden River and several smaller streams, as well as snowmelt from the surrounding mountains. The water is primarily used for irrigation, but also supports recreational activities such as boating, fishing, and swimming. The reservoir has a surface area of approximately 2,800 acres and a maximum depth of 130 feet. The surrounding area includes a state park and several campgrounds. Snowpack provides a significant portion of the water supply for the reservoir, with most of the runoff occurring in the spring and early summer. Agricultural uses include irrigation for fruit orchards and vegetable fields.

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 (“Pineview Reservoir”),
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.
Plan around the weather

About Pineview Reservoir
What is the water level at Pineview Reservoir right now?
As of August 31, 2026, Pineview Reservoir is holding 18,424 acre-ft, about 20% of normal for this date. Pool elevation and the year-over-year trend are shown above.
Is Pineview 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 Pineview Reservoir 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.
