About New Croton Reservoir
New Croton Reservoir covers about 2,182 acres in Westchester County, New York and is classed as a reservoir. At its deepest it reaches roughly 121 ft.
We have not matched New Croton Reservoir to a public USGS level gauge, so this page leans on wind and weather from the National Weather Service forecast grid over the lake. If you know of a gauge or a dam operator that publishes levels, tell us and we will add it.
Mid-sized lakes like this one tend to have shifty, gusty wind near shore and steadier pressure in the middle, which is why gust spread matters as much as average speed.
The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
