The ground at Henrys Lake's coordinates falls inside the D0 area of the weekly U.S. Drought Monitor map. That describes local conditions — rainfall, soil moisture, streamflow — not the reservoir's storage. Idaho drought figures →

Data source: BOR RISE — US Bureau of Reclamation — daily reservoir storage volume. Design capacity is unavailable for this site, so fill % is estimated against the 5-year maximum storage and may overstate fullness. Last reading: 2026-10-14.
