The main reservoir release gate will decrease from 125 to 90 cfs and the fish hatchery will remain at 5 cfs today, Friday, August 2, 2024.
RRP: 110cfs+/- (predicted) Six will not be surfable starting by mid afternoon. Chiclets might have a leftover wave after the water drops. Check back Sat/Sun but most likely you will have to hit Pueblo or Scout to surf this weekend. Possible rains all next week are promising for RRP.
Pueblo: 760cfs+/- The P-town new wave should be fun to surf today if the flow holds but it has been surfed down to 500cfs if it does drop today.
Scout: 690cfs+/- The VFMP is keeping the Scout wave at a steep and fun level. The VFMP flow ends August 15th so get it now before the surf season ends in two weeks at Scout.
