*Discharge will follow inflows down as inflow from the recent precipitation recedes. The current target for winter flow is between 400 and 500 cfs, which may not be reached until the last few weeks of October.
Current Storage = 655,661 ac-ft (77% full)
Current inflow (5-day average) = 754 cfs (1981-2010 average = 555 cfs)
