Hyde Lake Water Level Data

The data displayed on the chart below depicts the relative water level and the amount of precipitation at Hyde Park Lake at Shelby Farms Park. The water level (+ or -) relates to the level of the water in the lake relative to the spillway located on the western shore of the lake. For example, a water level of +4 would indicate that the level of the lake is four inches above the spillway. The precipitation is data recorded at the National Climatic Data Center (WFO Memphis, TN) located at the Agricenter.
