Canyon Lake was at 96.3% of conservation storage on Nov. 9, while the Edwards Aquifer Authority listed the San Antonio Pool at Stage 2.
The Texas Water Development Board's Canyon Lake reading and the aquifer authority's stage designation give residents two dated measures of local water conditions.

The Stage 2 designation calls for a 30% pumping reduction in the San Antonio Pool; Canyon Lake's percentage describes a separate reservoir measure. The aquifer authority also reported a J-17 well 10-day average of 642 feet above sea level and a Comal Springs 10-day average flow of 168 cubic feet per second on Nov. 9.
At 1 a.m. CST on Nov. 10, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers measured Canyon Lake at 907.28 feet above sea level, 1.72 feet below the top of its conservation pool. Its report recorded a 0.03-foot rise over 24 hours. That short interval does not establish a longer trend or a change in aquifer restrictions.
The next official readings will show whether either measure changes. Residents can check the aquifer authority's current conditions for the pumping stage and the Texas Water Development Board's Canyon Lake page for the reservoir's conservation-storage percentage.
