Don't know if the link below will work for you. They've been letting water out the entire month of July. Max out of the gates is only 1,930 CFS. If you're used to looking at Lewisville or Texoma, this is just a drop in the bucket! http://waterdata.usgs.gov/tx/nwis/uv?cb_...date=2015-08-05

yea, channel 5 at lunch time made it sound like they ramped it up yesterday out of Grapevine, Lewisville and Ray Roberts. Not sure how much they are actually upping it though.

I didn't look at Lewisville. With Raybob still being up, they are probably dumping a lot out of Lewisville.

Lewisville been releasing on average at 4200 to 4500 since May rain. Then they do a slower release one day per week then it goes back up. Lewisville is dropping a foot per every two days. It's now 6 feet over full pool.

I have heard that several of these cities are getting federal disaster money while the ramps/parks are closed. If that is true there may be an extended repair period.
