I share your skepticism about the rainfall prospects for this year's typical 'wet' season. But, I predicate my enthusiasm on APCo's reservoir management in our basin during this drought. Keep in mind that 12ft below full pool is typical for this date and inline with APCo's operating guideline (not the flood control rule curve value of 480ft). Given the paucity of rainfall we've had to date, if APCo continues their diligent reservoir storage management, I believe we may get close to full pool, even if spring rains fall short of average.
