We drove across the dam yesterday... highest I had ever seen the water.. at the Day Use Area on the east side of the dam, only the restroom at the top of the hill was not underwater... and the water was closing in on it... there were gates open and the river was high... It was an amazing sight...
Lots of water!

Were 12' short of a record as of right now! May 1957 the lake was 37' high let's hope we don't see that, that's getting pretty close to my front door

Lake Brazos through downtown Waco.
Stand corrected, but 25 and rising is unreal. Pretty much writing off being able to fish it this summer.

They are going to let the lake get to 28.5 ft that is where the corp of engineers is going to level it off at that is a crazy amount of water
