How much will it come up with the rain heading it’s way? My guess is 5’. Edit: maybe I meant .005”. What’s a worthless place for a storm to stall.

Only predicted to get 2 inches there and nothing significant on watershed above it. It will be lucky to get any rise at all. No more than a few inches. Historically big rises come from pacific storms stalling on the watershed, not gulf storms.

Zero. They will suck it out faster than it can go in.

Historically big rises come from pacific storms stalling on the watershed, not gulf storms. You're probably right but a well placed storm like Hurricane Harvey could do the trick.

The good news is the valley is getting a bunch of rain so they will probably slow the releases.

From watching the radar it looks like it might not get a damn drop.

So far we haven’t got much of anything, just spotty showers. 1/4 inch in my gauge, so not expecting much but hopefully I’m wrong. The County ramp/Valeno area is about out of commission. You can still launch but after you clear the bridge you will hit a big sandbar at the river. Water is less than 2’ for a good ways south in the river channel. 2 weeks ago I barely made it through there and stripped the paint off my skeg. Guess the flood of 2010 silted that area in. In 2001 when the water was 55’ low we had no problem passing under the bridge and out to the river. Things have changed significantly since then. Our local lake in Laredo, Casa Blanca will be going dry if we don’t get any decent rains before summer ends. It has never been this low in its history, what a shame. That lake puts out some Big fish. TPW just stocked a bunch of SAL fry in it a few weeks ago, it has No cover left. I’m sure the hybrids have decimated those by now. Hopefully we will get some rain around her soon, we need it.
