I saw an article online that showed most of the town of Breckenridge under water. Those poor people are either in a drought or flooded.

Wow. Stompy. I didn't realize the town was flooded until I read the articles. It is a terrible thing to be out of drinking water with homes flooded. Prayers up for the fatality and the families that are having a hard time.

2.2 foot low right now. It was 5.1 at this time yesterday.
It came up 5 inches in the last 2 hours. It will be full this week.
Yes we need a break.

Coached in Breckenridge in 2000. Awesome town, really good people, we loved it there. Hate that they are going thru a hard time with the flooding. Those people are tuff as nails, they will be OK. Will keep you in my thoughts.

Im glad the lake will fill up, but sure sorry for folks losses. Where does the water go when it leaves Hubbard? Does it end up in PK?

No PK is on the Brazos east of Hubbard creek. I'm not 100% sure but probably towards lake Leon in their water shed

Wow! This is terrible for the residents in and around Breckenridge. Praying for those in need. Please dont flood all the fish out of that lake! So excited to have it back up!

Look at Hubbard creek on the map... the lake is upside down. Dam is on the north east side... it dumps into brazos and that leads to pk. Over full now...

need Angelo lakes to fill and it would be AWESOME

Does abilene pump out of HC ?

Re: Hubbard Creek at Breckenridge - 06/01/16 05:14 PM

Yes, they built the dam and have water rights. A number of towns get water from there. Breckenridge, Anson, Albany and numerous communities.West Texas water municipal district oversees the lake. fish
