Snowbirds may be leaving but Komieforni is moving in! The Springs is full up and already had a Virus scare!
I see your point but not everyone is in that situation. It's certainly economically devastating for some families whose income comes from industries effected by the shutdown, but not all will be effected and some folks not at all.

Paul Ehrich, is that you?maybe this is the earth trying to lower our population so it can remain healthy.
The Final Solution?The solution to global warming and drought wrapped into 1.
No one panicked cause Obama was president and media is on the lefts side. Had Hillary won the media would not be blowing it out like now.How come nobody panicked about H1N1? But everyone is shifting themselves over this?
Also just to stir it up, maybe this is the earth trying to lower our population so it can remain healthy.

some CA are starting to delay summer setups.
a bunch of folks are delaying early to mid April Islander move-ins to early May, allowing current snowbirds to stay longer
Yep, we are supposed to be in Havasu right now. We cancelled the trip. I might need to do an overnight run to clean out the fridge (don't want food rotting in it) and adjust the sprinklers for the hotter weather, but I won't be in contact with any locals while there.
So I'm going to havasu to my own house with my wife and dog.I already have everything I need there . I'm going to take my boat out to a nice little beach with no one around and enjoy the lake. Where's the problem with that?I know I will have to go get gas and maybe hit the store but that's about it .After boating we will be hanging out at home grilling dinner and having some drinks.For entertainment we can play darts or watch old movies.I don't think that's irresponsible.People need to lighten up and use common sense.Yes do not hang out in large groups.Stay away from other people in public.Someday t
Fuck that racist asshole.Samuel L. Jackson’s view......
Just got word, that whomever makes the call, the lake will be down a minimum of 6' by the weekend. Damn, took a drive down London Bridge road and there's islands at the mouth I've never seen and they're dropping it another 6', DAMN!!!
yes.Is there not a min level for the lake anymore?
I thought soyes.
I just left safeway and watched in the parking lot 3 truckloads of people with CA plates loading up their coolers in their suits heading to the lake....but i'm sure they are all living in one household so they are social distancing together right? lol plenty of people just don't give a shit and they prove it regularly.
Snowpack in Colorado River Drainage is decent at 107% but not epic. Certainly not a below average year yet and a little less than last year which was a good year. Friend of mine work for the bureau of reclamation in Boulder CIty and has told me their strategy is to always maintain Havasu at close to full pool plus or minus a few feet. Only lake in the chain that gets this priority. Look at the charts to prove this point. No way they are taking it down 12ft or even 6ft quickly, it would create a lot of problems with navigation, etc.You might see more lower water. I do not think it is because of a attempted shutdown of any type. Lake Mead has reached a Tier 1 Zero, many states, such as AZ must leave 195K acre feet of their allotment for 2020 in Lake Mead, plus 7 other states gave up part of their allotted amount. along with Mexico, who gave up all water for 2020. So there will be days were water release below Lake Mead is restricted. FYI, Lake Mead and all the water connected down to Mexico is owned legally by Los Angeles County as they built it. Snow level for Colorado was not great this last season, it would take many good seasons to get Lake Mead up to a respected level. I say they need to start the project right now either piping from the Mississippi or Desalination from the Pacific.

So coming up on 5000 deaths, about a 1000 More since yesterday, If it doesn't slow we will be at 35000 dead by end of April, I think it will be higher.

Lake Havasu will always be kept pretty consistent because Metropolitan water District of California and the central Arizona project pumping stations can’t go below a certain level or Phoenix and Los Angeles will run out of water.We will see Colorado state has had a shortage, Lake Mead is very low. Lake Mead will not be not be sacrificed to keep Havasu functioning for the purpose of boating or tourism. It is a huge issue actually, that I have no answer for, nor do the experts. It does need attention to it starting now...my original post was qualifying they will be holding back water in Lake Mead, it is a fact. I know nothing of 12ft or 6ft as I never read or stated what the lower dependent water levels would be seeing. I was replying to how low the water was reported under the London bridge. We will see, trust me I own and place and boat, I don't want to lose the ability, myself.
Maybe wrong thread, sorry HGP3. Trying to help all the people sitting at the lake posting pics who maybe aren't able to watch the news.Are they dying in the channel, or are you in the wrong thread?
No need to apologize. Feel free to post where you want. I just didn't know if you were aware of the covid-19 forum. Link below:Maybe wrong thread, sorry HGP3. Trying to help all the people sitting at the lake posting pics who maybe aren't able to watch the news.

Paper said that was the case alright this morning.Well the 'No mooring in Channel' signs are gone. I guess it is open for business...
Fricken loud SOB!!!Sounds like an afternoon boat ride is in order.
No wind, mid week, yep. It’s miller time.
I’ll be the guy in the obnoxious yellow jet bote.
