El Nino Helping Reservoir Levels?


It does appear that water levels were higher earlier in 2015, perhaps due to El Nino.
The North Okanagan doesn't regularly receive rainfall during the Fall, nor during mild weather mid-winter.  Nice when we get it though...

This chart holds considerable interest for GVW customers, as 19 year averages are mostly comparable to the 10 year average reservoir levels.

"If only GVW's data on consumption were as comprehensive," says Kia, adding "their data to SAC still lumped together all other consumption outside of Agricultural as 'Domestic', which for many years included the ICI category of Institutional, Commercial, and Industrial."




That's ludicrous from a data standpoint!
