Utah's Great Salt Lake drops to lowest level ever recorded.
Average daily water levels dropped about an inch below the previous record of 4,194 feet, set in 1963, with records dating back to 1847.
The drought numbers in Utah this year illustrate how dire the situation is there. The latest U.S Drought Monitor report released on Thursday shows nearly 100% of the state is experiencing extreme drought conditions -- level 3 out of 4. "Based on current trends and historical data, the USGS anticipates water levels may decline an additional foot over the next several months," Ryan Rowland, data chief for the USGS Utah Water Science Center, said in a statement.
