Reservoir storage levels in the Yakima Basin have fallen to their lowest since record-keeping began in 1971, leaving irrigators grappling with severe drought conditions.
Junior water rights holders in the Yakima Basin were projected to receive only 40% of their estimated water allotment this year. Senior water rights holders will still receive their full allotment. As of August 1st, reservoir storage was at 39% capacity, holding just under 415,000 acre-feet of water, which is 55% of the average.
KIMA-TV (Yakima, Wash.), Aug 7, 2025
Yakima River basin irrigators with junior water rights will receive 40% of their full allotments as the bureau updated its outlook on July 30 while warning that the water supply could fall as low as 35%. The next forecast update will be Aug. 7.
At 40% of a full allotment, the water shortage rivals the record low 37% that supply irrigators received in 1994 and 2001. Irrigators with senior water rights that were issued before 1905 will still get 100% of their requested water, while junior water rights holders have gotten less than a full allotment for the past three summers.
Capital Press (Salem, Ore.), July 31, 2025
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation forecasted that Yakima River basin irrigators with junior water-rights would get 43% of their full water allotments, the lowest percentage in 20 years. The Reclamation Bureau will update its outlook in mid-June and projects the water supply could drop to as low as 34% of normal.

Tropical Storm Ivo Discussion Number 2
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP092025
900 PM CST Wed Aug 06 2025
Ivo's cloud pattern is gradually becoming better organized but the
convective banding features are not yet well defined. Very cold
cloud tops to -70 deg C or colder are evident, primarily over the
northern portion of the circulation. The upper-level outflow
pattern is fairly well defined over the system, but outflow is
restricted over the northeastern quadrant. The current intensity
estimate is kept at 35 kt for now, in agreement with a subjective
Dvorak classification from TAFB and most objective estimates from
UW-CIMSS.
Blending center fixes from SAB and TAFB give a swift
west-northwestward motion of around 295/19 kt, as in the
previous advisory. There is a strong 500 mb high situated to the
north of Ivo, which is predicted to remain in place for the next
couple of days. This should keep the tropical cyclone on a
west-northwestward track, parallel to, but offshore of, the coast
of southwestern Mexico. Beyond 24-36 hours, Ivo should turn a bit
to the left with decreasing forward speed while moving away from
Mexico. The official track forecast is very similar to the
previous one and close to the dynamical model consensus.
For the next couple of days, Ivo should be in an environment of
moderate vertical shear, fairly warm waters and high low- to
mid-level humidity. Therefore strengthening is likely and the
system is predicted to become a hurricane by late this week. Later
in the forecast period, the system should be traversing cooler
waters which is likely to reduce the cyclone to a remnant low in 5
days. The official intensity forecast is at the high end of the
model guidance.
The tropical-storm-force winds associated with Ivo are expected to
remain offshore of the coast of Mexico, however heavy rain and
rough surf are likely along portions of the southwest coast of
Mexico during the next day or two.

Tropical Storm Henriette Discussion Number 12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP082025
500 PM HST Wed Aug 06 2025
Henriette’s satellite presentation has deteriorated since the
previous advisory, with the cyclone now nearly devoid of all deep
convection and the low-level center fully exposed. The most recent
subjective Dvorak intensity estimates were 3.0/45 kt from TAFB,
while SAB deemed the cyclone too weak to classify. Meanwhile,
objective estimates from UW-CIMSS have ranged from 37 to 51 kt over
the past several hours. An earlier 06/1755Z Metop-C ASCAT pass
depicted numerous 40 kt wind barbs, with a single 40–45 kt wind barb
noted north of the low-level center. Based on these data, the
initial intensity for this advisory is maintained, at perhaps a
generous, 45 kt.
The cyclone is moving westward, or 275 degrees, at 14 kt. This
general motion is expected to persist tonight and Thursday, as
Henriette continues to be steered by a strengthening subtropical
ridge to its north. A gradual turn toward the west-northwest and
eventually northwest is expected to begin Friday and continue
through the weekend, as an amplifying longwave trough northwest of
Hawaii begins to erode the western extent of the subtropical ridge.
The official track forecast remains closely aligned with the latest
multi-model consensus aids and is largely unchanged from the
previous advisory. There is high confidence that the center of
Henriette will remain far to the north of the Hawaiian Islands.
Henriette will be moving over gradually cooling sea surface
temperatures, lowering to near 24C, while mid-level relative
humidity also falls below 50 percent. Despite these marginal
thermodynamic conditions, Henriette’s well-established circulation
is likely to remain resilient due to the low-shear environment the
cyclone will be transiting through. As a result, only slight
weakening is forecast during the next 12 hours or so, followed by
little change in strength through 72 hours. If Henriette can
survive the passage over the cooler waters, as has been advertised
by the GFS and ECMWF models for several days now, re-intensification
appears likely over the weekend and into early next week as sea
surface temperatures warm to levels conducive for strengthening.
The official intensity forecast reflects this, bringing Henriette to
hurricane strength by 120 hours. The intensity forecast is mostly
unchanged and remains closely aligned with the dynamical intensity
guidance aid HCCA and the regional hurricane models.

Valid 070100Z - 071200Z
...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PARTS OF THE
NORTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS AND MIDWEST...AND ALSO FOR NORTHWEST MN...
...SUMMARY...
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of
the northern/central Plains to the Mid-Mississippi Valley, and over
part of northern Minnesota, this evening into late tonight.
...Eastern WY/southeast MT into western/central SD/northwest NE...
A favorable conditional environment remains in place this evening
from eastern WY/far southeast MT into western SD/northwest NE, with
moderate to strong buoyancy and effective shear of 40-50 kt.
However, large-scale ascent is generally weak, and storms that
developed across far eastern WY have been very isolated and
relatively slow to intensify. A severe storm or two remains possible
through the evening, with a threat of isolated hail and localized
strong to severe gusts. Isolated strong to severe storm development
also cannot be ruled out this evening across central SD, in the
vicinity of diffuse surface boundary.
...Northern MN...
Strong storms have developed this evening across southeast MB, in
the vicinity of a surface trough. Stronger large-scale ascent and
greater storm coverage are expected to remain north of the
international border, but development of an isolated strong storm or
two cannot be ruled out through dusk across northwest MN, within a
moderately buoyant environment.
...Eastern NE/SD into IA/northern MO/northeast KS late tonight...
Elevated convection may develop late tonight from eastern NE/western
IA into northeast KS/northwest MO, within a low-level warm advection
regime. Moderate to strong elevated buoyancy, steep midlevel lapse
rates, and modestly favorable effective shear could support at least
transient storm organization. One or two southeastward-moving
clusters may develop overnight within this regime, with a threat of
isolated hail and strong to locally damaging gusts.
...Central/eastern MT into western ND late tonight...
Elevated convection may increase overnight from central into
northeast MT, in advance of a mid/upper-level shortwave trough
moving across the interior Northwest. Moisture and elevated buoyancy
will initially be modest, though small hail and gusty winds could
accompany these storms overnight. There is some potential for this
convection to intercept greater moisture/instability across
northeast MT very late in the period, though at this time it appears
that organized-severe potential may remain limited until near/after
12Z.

High winds and extreme drought conditions in northwest Colorado have driven the rapid growth of two wildfires this week near Meeker in Rio Blanco County.
The Lee Fire, west of Meeker, nearly doubled in size Tuesday, August 5, and has burned 22,497 acres, mostly on Bureau of Land Management land south of Colorado Highway 13. About 20 miles to the east, the Elk Fire was estimated at 8,304 acres. Both fires were believed to have been started by lightning strikes on Aug. 2.
