New study predicts how weather changes will impact future water supplies
New study predicts how weather changes will impact future water supplies
09/02/2022
Communities that rely on surface water supplies from the American River and Folsom Reservoir must modernize and diversify their water supply, storage and delivery infrastructure to adapt to changing weather patterns. This is the conclusion of a new study published by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and sponsored by several local water agencies, including the City of Roseville. The American River Basin Study analyzes how changing weather patterns will impact the timing, magnitude and type of precipitation in the future (rain vs. snow). The American River Basin includes the American River watershed, which stretches from roughly Interstate 80 to Highway 50 and from the high Sierra Nevada to Sacramento. The study forecasts that temperatures will rise by six (6) degrees and the high mountain snowpack that traditionally stores water supplies until spring will be reduced by 50 percent by the end of this century. More precipitation will arrive as rain in the watershed and the majority of water runoff will flow into Folsom Reservoir in January through March, rather than April through June.
