Water companies: "Whinge whinge not enough water whine whine don't make too many ice cubes..."
Now, given that the Bewl Reservoir site is 1200 acres in size, the area of water is 770 acres, the length of the shoreline is 15 miles and the reservoir holds 6900 million gallons of water when it is full, and is currently 85% full, how much rain would it need to fill it?
1035 million gallons, obviously, but how much rain is that over its area? If we use a well known term: pissing down, how long would it take to fill the remaining 15% in pissing down conditions?Si
