To address these needs, TVMWD is embarking on the preparation of a Water Resources Master Plan and Drought Contingency Plan (WRMP and DCP). These plans will identify and prioritize projects and actions to be included in a roadmap enhancing the region’s water supply portfolio. The TVMWD Regi...
The map at right shows water supplyforecasts(typically April-July or April-September) from NOAA River Forecast Centers. Snowpack is a key input to water supply forecasts and peak snow accumulation is typically reached in early April. Water year 2024 early snowpack conditions are average to above ...
Software like ClimPACT2 (to quality check data and generate SPI, SPEI, and CDD drought indices), DrinC (to generate AI, eRDI and PD drought indices), CMhyd (to bias correct NASA POWER gridded data), and ArcGIS (to map extreme drought years) were used in this study. It was revealed...
California drought deepens as wet season is anything but New readings showed the water in California’s mountain snowpack sat at 38% of average. That’s the lowest mark since the end of the last drought in 2015; only twice since 1988 has the level been lower. SACRAMENTO, Calif. - ...

Present-day drought early warning systems provide the end-users information on the ongoing and forecasted drought hazard (e.g. river flow deficit). However, information on the forecasted drought impacts, which is a prerequisite for drought management, is
