I just bought a house on the lake in 2010 so I am new to watching the lake level. I've noticed the level never gets to 490. Seems to max out at 489.50. Today it's 489.63 and they are releasing 4340 cfm today. Why not let it rise to full pool? If there is a big storm coming, they can release then. Why the 6 inch cushion?
