Summary
Daily measurements of Willow Creek Lake water storage were provided by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources for 2012–14. These water levels were used in conjunction with a table (provided by the Lower Elkhorn Natural Resources District) relating lake storage volume to surface area. From these, daily estimates of surface area were derived for the lake.
