I don't really know how the lake could not go up some from this past week of rain. I have 2 rain gauges which both usually have the same amount in them....I got 5.25 on Thursday night, 1.25 on Friday night, 2 on Saturday and it rained all day yesterday but I haven't checked the gauges. Also, on the news last night WSFA reported that we are only 4 inches below normal at this point. The most rain in the month of July in recent history. I am in the Pike Road area so I realize the factor of being south of the lake is not helpful and realize what I get is not what the lake gets, I also realize that to benefit the lake the most it needs to rain in the north GA area. The rain didn't just originate in Pike Road...it moved all over the state and over GA too. With almost 10 inches of rain this past week at my house, the least we should expect is for the water to "remain idle" at this point...correct? AL Power....any input on this?
