Arkansas lake levels: common questions
Are Arkansas lakes low right now?
5 of the 13 Arkansas lakes with enough history to compare are in the bottom quarter of their own October record. That seasonal comparison matters more than the raw level: reservoirs are drawn down on a schedule, so a lake several feet below full pool in October may still be entirely normal for the date.
Which Arkansas lake has changed most this week?
Lake Catherine has risen the most, +0.09 ft over seven days, and Bull Shoals Lake has fallen the most at -0.47 ft.
How often do Arkansas lake levels update?
Each gauge publishes on its own schedule. Most report at least daily, some hourly. This page is rebuilt every day from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Geological Survey, and the number on an individual lake's page refreshes again in your browser when the agency posts a newer reading. Readings are provisional and can be revised.
