Lake Level
 
TVA and Corp predicting lake level to go to 371', 12' over summer pool, a record. No boating any time soon.

Yeah. Hope it doesn't do too much damage to anyone. How's Paducah holding up?

If it hits 371 it will be a new record, the thing about last year they were able to spill to the river but this year there going to have to hold it! Lets hope it falls quick!

I thought 372 was limit lake could go to- at that level started flowing over the lowest point of one of the dam's. Not sure if KY Dam or Barkley that limits that.

I heard 375' would put water over the top of KY Dam. It set a record yesterday with 370' :mad:

How bad did it get

Jim Diesel 05-03-2011 09:17 PM

Its at 373 and going 373.3 tomorrow, but the most water the dam can hold back is 375.

Yep, 375 is over the top. It's about to be a big mess... Up there, and on the river. They're saying now that once everything crest's, it'll stay there for a week. I doubt any of this water is going anywhere fast, but lets hope it does. My campsite is destroyed. Luckily I've got some good landlords and the camper was moved long before the flood hit. The work around the site isn't so good though.

Hope everyone else is doing good.
