Nobody Expected Hoover Dam to RISE This Fast..
Nine days ago, the water behind Hoover Dam hit 1,037.16 feet, the lowest level since Lake Mead first filled in the 1930s. By Halloween it had climbed to 1,038.85 feet. That's 1.69 feet in nine days, about 37 billion gallons, and already four feet above the government's official forecast for the end of the year. Then on Sunday, Hoover Dam opened up its releases, and the biggest storm of the season started pouring across Arizona. So will the water at Hoover keep rising, or was last week the peak?
