Lake Roosevelt water levels continue to rise
RESERVOIRS -- The Lake Roosevelt water elevation was 1,234.1 at noon today and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation predicts the level will continue to rise 1-2 feet a day through the Memorial Day weekend.
The agency predicted today that the lake will be about 1,250 by the end of next week. However, conditions continue to change rapidly which will influence the rate of rise next week.
According to the Lake Roosvelt minimum levels for boat lauching chart, the current water elevation of 1,234 feet meets the minimun needed for five of the lake's 22 boat lauches.
