How the ranking works

Only reservoirs with at least 10 years of weekly values and a current value are ranked. A reservoir ranks first by where its newest value sits for the date: below every year, in the lowest 5 percent, in the lowest 10 percent; then by how far it lies beyond the 10th (or 90th) percentile, measured in widths of the normal range.
