Only 488?
Still 4 feet low??
We must not have had as much rain in the watershed as I thought.

It will take time for all that water to drain into the lake. I know we got 5 inches plus at my house in McKinney.

yeah, probably a week before it is done running unless we get even more rain.

I don't know if you'll see that much of a rise, as the usage is really up this time of year. The lake has really dropped over the last 30 days.

It has come up .45 from Monday AM. I think it may come up another half a foot by mid next week. Only my 2 cents worth

I'm just saying usage has alot to do with it. If it were winter, you would have seen a bulge by now. Just seems to be going out faster than coming in.

I was seeing sprinklers on in the middle of the rain storm. Makes NO sense.

We got over 8 inches of rain in Parker...can hardly tell that we got that much by looking at the fields and ditches. I don't think much is making it to Lavon.

It was running pretty good in the ditches yesterday up my way but I dont think it will raise it that much too many cracks to fill along the way.

Wow... I'm still amazed.
That's a lotta rain not to make it to the lake.
I'd have to say I don't understand it.
(I'll just add it my list of stuff I don't get...)
