Milner water cut off
#5
Personally, I never felt the sky was falling. I looked at the low water as a learning experience. Nonetheless, the media was not all wrong. The shut off date this year was one month earlier than average. And since all the rivers and streams that eventually fill the Snake are also experiencing low water, I think we will see a very low Snake River - at least down here in Canyon/Owyhee counties.

The lowest water level ever recorded at the Murphy gage was 2.22' on July 7, 1981. The river flow was 3650 cfs at that time. Last night the level dropped to 2.73' and 5050 cfs. This is the lowest the river has been all year. I still think we're going to see very low water levels, and perhaps a record low.
