Topic	Lake Mead - 1983 vs 2021... wtf we are so screwed.
MrWizardWorld 07/02/22 8:55:28 PM #33:	I still don't understand. I drew a picture on where I'm confused... https://imgur.com/E8yPvFw https://i.imgur.com/E8yPvFw.jpg Also, things I found out while looking at pictures of the spillway.... The 1983 picture is deceiving. That is NOT the lake's normal water level. The lake was up high due to flooding. This is the only time in the dam's entire history where water naturally spilled over into the spillway. The water only went over the spillway twice. Once in 1983 (pictured) and when they tested it when the dam was first built. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-Jav4afsZ0 ^Home footage of everyone trying to see the ultra rare spill over in 1983. <cite>MrWizardWorld posted [p:966292633] in Lake Mead ...
