Shasta is now just 34 feet from full pool and is continuing to rise. The lake now sits at 103% of seasonal average levels. The lake has risen dramatically since the first of the year. Lake level at January 1, was 920.23 feet with full pool at 1067 feet. That is 146.77 feet from the top. Today 34 feet, a 112 foot increase in just two and a half months. And with more rain forecast for this weekend, the beginning of spring there are strong hopes that the lake will shortly reach full pool.
