About Lake Havasu Water Levels
Lake Havasu is the final major Lower Colorado River reservoir above Parker Dam. Its elevation reflects upstream river operations, major water diversions, evaporation, and releases below Parker.
The reservoir supplies the Colorado River Aqueduct and Central Arizona Project. Reclamation identifies 440 to 450 feet as the active-storage range used for Parker Dam hydropower; it is not a universal safety or forecast range.
The date table separates the latest daily operating forecast from the longer monthly Most Probable planning scenario.
Historic lines show recorded conditions. Forecast lines can change whenever the Bureau of Reclamation publishes a new operating or planning outlook.
Data Sources and Update Schedule
Recorded Lake Havasu elevation comes from Bureau of Reclamation Lower Colorado River operations data. The daily forecast snapshot and monthly 24-Month Study are different products; this page retains their exact record, retrieval, and publication dates.
