Lake Levels USA tracks 15 lakes and reservoirs in New Mexico using Texas Water Development Board (Water Data for Texas), U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (RISE), U.S. Geological Survey (Water Data for the Nation). Of the 15 with a current 7-day trend, 8 rose and 3 fell by more than 0.05 ft. Latest data: Oct 25, 2026. Elevations from different gauges use different datums, so compare each lake with its own history, not with other lakes.
