Dramatic photos from NASA highlight severity of California s drought Hayley Smith As the West descends deeper into drought, climate and water experts are growing increasingly alarmed by California s severely shriveling reservoirs. On Monday, Shasta Lake the largest reservoir in the state held a scant 1.57 million acre-feet of water, according to the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, or about 35% of its capacity. A series of satellite images captured by NASA show just how dramatically the water level has fallen. One image from July 2019 shows a fuller Shasta Lake surrounded by green banks. This year, that greenness has been replaced by a tan bathtub ring lining the lakebed, indicating the degree to which water has fallen.
