Info about Navarro Mills

Talked to the Corp. of Engineers today about NM.
The record high lake level was 440.36’ 5/18/68 15.86’ above normal.
Lake level today is 438.41’ Over normal by 13.91’
Lake needs to rise 1.95’ to tie the record. (Which more rain is on the way.)
The Trinity River at Oakwood is 42.37’, must be down to 23’ before releasing water at NM.
Also RC can’t be releasing over 5,000 cfs.
So the bottom line is, it will be several days before NM will be releasing water……

And looking at all the lakes on the Trinity River Basin, there's a lot of water to be released. NM and Bardwell may not see normal till August.

Ken: Did not want to hear that. So RC here I come....

Sounds like NM may see a new record.

Rain almost to Hill County.......
