...Cambridge braced for floodwaters from the swollen Koshkonong Creek today, piling sandbags Thursday night in the latest effort in Dane County to stem the tide of the historic rains set to end sometime later today.

Perhaps the wetlands at Carcajou are flooding from the backside, before Lake Koshkonong rose above the OHWM...

...The daily water level update from the United States Geological Survey today shows Lake Monona almost two feet above the target maximum level, while Lake Waubesa is 1.6 feet above the max, Lake Mendota 1.5 feet above the max and Lake Kegonsa .27 feet above the max.

Lake Koshkonong is 30 inches ABOVE summer max - hydrology is NOT a one-size science!

..."The fixed boat hoists could have boats floating off if they are set too low in the high water conditions," Falk said. "Make adjustments in your piers and boat hoists."

Welcome to life on Lake Koshkonong.
