its because we haven't had any rain to speak of. the US Drought monitor has this area categorized as "abnormally dry". Alabama Power can't just hold onto the water. They must meet downstream water requirements to meet water level and water quality requirements downstream on the Alabama River. They have to release a certain amount to maintain downstream requirements but if there is not an equivalent amount flowing into Martin and Harris from upstream, both reservoirs will have see lower levels.

I tried to find data that would the extent of rainfall deficit for the Tallapoosa RIver Basin, but I could not put my fingers on it.
