The water levels in the basin are something the area hasn't seen in nearly four decades.

Rivers that used to run into the basin were diverted in the 1980s, leaving the land in the basin to be used for agricultural fields.
Before it went dry, the lake was known in the late 1800s as the largest freshwater lake in the western United States.
The flooded areas of Kings County are expected to stay underwater into this summer.
