Westsidebenny Posting - At It Again

Well the water is on the lawns but not over the road so thats swell. Half the pier floated away which is about the norm.

Were was the water relative to the proposed level when we started? Where would it be RIGHT NOW had it started there? Still hasn't crested yet. MORE rain on the way.

It's not all sunshine and blue skies men. I wouldn't be too quick to start the back patting yet because had we been at the proposed level to start with she'd be bursting at the seems again.
Kinda like having April in August.

At the days end its still a dish that many wish was a bucket. Any ideas on how to change that?

BTW: Heard some Joe's are picking up a mixed bag of dinkers trolling the lake.


Westsidebeny,
look at the hydrology study closely and you will see that if the levels had been where requested that the levels now would be the same as they are.

What would happen is there would have been a greater tip or downhill slope, which allows more water to pass through the gates and over the dam till the waters below the dam rises.

The greater the drop the faster the water movement.
