February 18, 2018 - Yesterday Turlock Irrigation District (TID) provided an update on operations at Don Pedro Reservoir. As of the time of the update Don Pedro Reservoir was less than four feet from the limit of 830 feet. TID does not anticipate the reservoir reaching 830 feet through Sunday. But if the forecasted rain for Monday and Tuesday (4.9 inches) develops into actual inflow into the reservoir the volume of water would rise over 830 feet and the controlled spillway would be in operation.
