It did indeed rise with the rain over the weekend. There was significantly more rain north of the Lake in the watershed which really helps as much if not more than rain right at the lake. Also combine that with minimal releases by APCO and we got a small rise. It actually helps more than just a 0.1 foot rise over 3 days. If you look at the levels over the last several weeks it was dropping 0.1 to 0.2 feet per day. So a rise of 0.1 foot is actually 0.3 to 0.4 feet higher than it would have been had we not gotten the rain. If you look at the APCO site they predicted the level to be at 487' by July 13. Instead it is at 487.6 on the 14th. Hopefully it will hold 487.6 for another day or so before it starts to drop again. Just pray for more rainy periods like we just had and we will get through Labor Day with decent levels. And if we manage to get a tropical storm........
