A big storm cell dumped a lot of rain there this morning. I drove down to Harbor Inn's launch off of Boat Club Road and water was still rushing in from the creeks hours later. My guess is it will probably gain 2-3 ft or more.
We're hoping.

Hope you're right but so far we are up only 5" from yesterday at this time. Will get a truer reading in another 24 hours.

In front of my place, we don't have water, it looks like a lake of 1/2 coffee and 1/2 cream. Cruddy brown water is going to slow down fishing for a few days.

This is what I received from them this morning:

Our reservoir manager tells me that if the lake reaches 641.00 -642.00 with a positive outlook we would reconnect the courtesy dock and open the ramp. There is a substantial cost associated with repositioning the dock so we want to make sure we are on a definite upward swing prior to making the move.

Tell em you don't need the dock...just the ramp.

I was thinking the same thing, fisherman don't need docks. It will be at 641.00 tomorrow morning

You would think they are losing more money with the ramp closed than it would cost to reconnect the dock.

So maybe by the end of the week? It's at 640.5 as of this morning with more forecast rain later this week.....
wait what am I thinking, it'll take them a week to put in the work order and another week to get it hooked up....

and any water will be quickly injected into holes in the ground or sent downstream anyway.
