North Carolina's Coast COLLAPSES — 30+ Homes SWALLOWED, Outer Banks ERODE 20 Feet Per Year

Lake Powell is dropping toward the level where Glen Canyon Dam can no longer generate electricity — and the seven states that depend on this water have no plan. Lake Powell water level update March 2026 — Glen Canyon Dam hydropower crisis as Colorado River drought intensifies. The nation's second-largest reservoir sits at just 3,530 feet, only 40 feet above minimum power pool. Federal forecasters project spring runoff at just 36% of normal — potentially the fifth-lowest inflow since the reservoir was created in 1963. The Colorado River headwaters snowpack is at its lowest level since measurements began in 1986, the basin experienced its warmest winter on record, and the seven basin states missed their second federal deadline to agree on post-2026 water sharing rules. The Bureau of Reclamation may cut water releases for the first time ever as 40 million people face an unprecedented water and energy crisis.
