I will make a prediction. When the rain does come APCO will use it to generated power, NOT to raise the lake. So when the tropical front moves thru and we get several inches of rain but the lake remains at the same level, some of you (Bob) will have plenty to whine and be hysterical about. Oh what fun that will be then......lol

The only exception I think would be if we are already below winter level they may be forced to raise to winter level before being allowed to generate with it.

The basis for this prediction. APCO is a BUSINESS, and that business is generating power for PROFIT. So far this year they have generated virtually nill with hydro, replacing it with COAL. Now for you tree huggers there is an issue you can take on...lol APCO has already announced that they may have to go to the PSC for a rate increase if relief doesn't come soon. You see APCO is a business, and that business is NOT our recreation, it is generating ELECTRICITY! They are guaranteed in their charter a 15% ROI. They will get it one way or the other. I prefer they get from keeping costs down through the use of cheap, clean hydro power.
