Lake Powell — water-year history

[Rainbowbridge]

Hi All,

Found this nifty yearly min/max if'n anyone's interested. Bet some of our sages who shall remain nameless, like JFR.... can recite these numbers as quickly as their ABCs.......or perhaps even have them tattooed somewhere well....discrete....

I however continually remain 'challenged'.....and must refer to them.....

On another serious note.....the 3502 on May 22 1967 still is amazing & thought provoking.....but alas our Lake somehow survived.....Enjoy!

I regularly retrieved this on the LP Water Data Base site, but I haven’t figured out how to retrieve historical data on the revised site. I think Dave posted that old format was still available. I need to poke around more, perhaps it’s user incompetence.

Old site: Lake Powell Water Database

Well, Richie, can you splain how I save this link to old database. It has same address as the new database so it appears to me. When I copy address from top of old database and paste it into Chrome, it takes me to new database.

I keep both new and old sites up....both sites will not show this hysterical..... data anymore.......

This address is a little different, it has index_old.php at the end of it.

I just tapped it, it took me right to the old site,
No issues.
