Lake Powell is less than a quarter full, and after a dismally dry winter in the Rocky Mountains, Mother Nature is pretty much done putting more water in.
Water levels were on course to drop low enough to shut down hydropower at Arizona's Glen Canyon Dam.
The only reason that's not happening is an emergency boost of water sent down from reservoirs further north.
