Any lake never has to much water. There are several lakes in south and west Texas that need more water. Hope they get some before it stops.

Launch ramp closed. May end up being like a private lake for those of us with boats in slips if all ramps end up closed. except for those pesky yakkers

Ray Roberts is releasing water which will flood homes south of it. If they do not, homes north and east of it will flood. Rock in a hard place here. Of course the lakes like Lewisville that Roberts drains into is full and will have to release and flood downstream

I hate to disagree with you but there are several lakes with too much water around here, so much that it could endanger lives and many homes, I hope you get all the rain you can stand down south but we do not need anymore here.

It's either not enough, or to much in Tejas. I'll take the to much every time. Feel sorry for the folks in the flood zone.

How's Medina doing? It was a creek last in saw. up an inch. only 85.28 ft low! If it doesn't rain in or near the town of Medina that lake will stay bone dry. That lake probably has the smallest watershed in the state and if it doesn't rain between those two hills it doesn't fill up. Sounds funny but we are looking at the proof! Rain all around and it still doesn't get any water! It will eventually, but it will usually have to be more localized and constant before it catches enough water to fill up.
Just one more cast!

that's a fact Jimbo. It's a small - but very efficient watershed. Finally getting a good rain up there in the right spot today. It's a start.

The big danger is the integrity of Lewisville dam if RayBob goes over the spillway. Lewisville dam already has seeps and the spillway is degraded and cracked. Carrolton and parts south are in peril right now.
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!
