Local climate can change it depending if you are near the equator and where you are in the world. Say if its hot, the lake may be hot too. If the climate is cold, such as it is in winter, the rivers could be frozen. They may even have freezing water.

Rivers evaporate by the sun rays With presipitation(rainfall) they can overflow and flood surrounding land

Climate affects the flow of rivers. In years of drought, the river may have reduced flow. The depth of the water table will also have an effect, since the river may no longer flow on the surface. Flooding may occur when there is heavy rain in the area or when water flows into the river from a watershed upstream. Snow melt also affects water flow and, if there is no snow, then the river level will be lower. Warm weather may affect the oxygenation and wellbeing of the native species in the body of water.

Is hydroelectricity a fuel?

No because hydroelectricity is renewable (meaning that it isn't in a limited supply). Gravity from the earth, sun, and moon cause rivers to flow and since gravity will never end, rivers will always run and be available for the making of hydroelectricity.

Rivers respond to gravity, and flow downhill or down any slope. The current (flowing water) will react according to the slope down which it is moving.
