Reservoirs have reached near capacity along the Verde and Salt rivers after a wet season caused rain and snow runoff across central Arizona mountains.
The Arizona Republic reported that the Salt River Project's system of six reservoirs is now 98% full, its highest level since 2010.
In comparison, the reservoirs stood at 79% of their full capacity in 2019 and 60% full in 2018.
The Republic reported that the reservoirs suffered a series of dry years in the 2000s and mid-2010s, but three of the past four winters were wet.
The Salt River Project services the Phoenix metropolitan area, including Phoenix, Mesa, Scottsdale, Tempe, Glendale, Peoria, Chandler and Gilbert.
