Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

Maybe? Yesterday speaking to my barber he said the SouthFork this past weekend was already full of trash and wood debris. If this rain keeps up and it looks like a line was headed from TN to the lake area could we jump 10' or will they let a lot of that out?

It would be nice if it could fill up and maybe above early to allow things to settle... I saw sticks etc. on the roads where I love that had not washed out before so I'm sure there is some flushing going on...

If they need to hold all discharge because of flooding towards Nashville, then it should take a big jump. And this mornings radar shows lots of rain in that direction.

I'm calling it 715 from this event as today is basically a new one. Looks like a few got it right on LC.com. They must really be running the generators or something as it sure looked like they were getting a BUNCH of rain late last week. Looks like another inch or two forecasted today. I see a lot of 3,520 cubic feet per second discharges listed but I don't really know how much that really is or if it is any more than normal... lol I truly thought it would jump more than it did... Guess at this height there is a LOT more lake surface area for the water to spread out into.
