The San Diego County Water Authority lowered the level of Lake Hodges Tuesday as another big winter storm approached San Diego. The reservoir, which had been filled to within four feet of capacity, was lowered at the request of the City of San Diego, which owns the facilility. Some 7,500 acre-feet of water was pumped to the nearby Olivenhain Reservoir, allowing Lake Hodges to capture runoff from the storm forecast to begin Tuesday night and last into Thursday
