Lake Tahoe at natural rim for first time since April

On April 9, 2016, Lake Tahoe reached its natural rim for the first time in ten months after a wet winter gave much needed water to the lake. Since then the melting snowpack was enough to keep water levels above its natural rim, that is, until today.

The natural rim is 6,223 feet.

There is 20-50 percent chance of rain in the area through Wednesday, but rainfall amounts aren't forecast to be measurable.
