LAKE MONONA WATER LEVELS

Lake Monona Water levels from April 12, 2009 through April 12, 2010 at which point we saw the lowest lake levels in years. That didn't last long...


Spring 2008 Lake Monona water levels peaked at 846.35' on April 26th primarily due to a record snow fall during the 2007/2008 winter.


Over the next 30 days, the water level dropped down toward the Statutory Summer Maximum as water moved through the Yahara watershed.


Very heavy rains in June resulted in a large increase in Lake Monona water levels. A new record was reached on June 16th, 2008 of 847.86'. The previous record high water lavel was 847.48' on June 15, 2000.
