DROUGHT EXERCISE - Afternoon Potomac flow and demand update (Sunday 09/18/2011)
There has been no significant rainfall in the basin over the past 24 hours. The National Weather Service quantitative precipitation
forecasts indicate that there will be accumulations of up to 0.75 inches over much of the basin during the next five days.
A Little Seneca water supply release of 30 MGD (total target of 66 MGD) was requested this morning and will continue until further notice
(SIMULATED). We will watch flows closely to determine the on-going need and magnitude of the release.
