How We Calculate These Numbers

Daily history for Jordan Lake uses the USGS daily mean when the saved response includes one; otherwise it keeps the last instantaneous reading for each local date. This page doesn't show a full-pool line because the fetched sources didn't confirm one on this datum. The same-day mean at Jordan Lake uses 8 readings on this calendar day from 2015 through 2025 and equals 216.95 ft. All of these figures come from station 02098197. Percent full is shown only when an agency published it; it is never estimated by dividing elevation by a pool elevation.
