Bureau of Reclamation models project further declines through late 2026, though monsoon precipitation, temperature anomalies, and any operational adjustments could moderate losses. With market-implied odds tightly clustered near 50% across narrow elevation bands, trader sentiment hinges on near-term inflow variability and official forecast revisions, as small shifts in spring snowmelt or summer evaporation rates determine whether the reservoir stabilizes above or breaches key thresholds like 1,033–1,038 feet.
