The water level at Black Cat WeatherCenter (which will be equal to everywhere else on the lake) is now 8 inches above-full, as measured 30 minutes ago. At noontime it was 7.5 inches above full.
Winds today were very light, so waves were small. However, the lake is now within a foot of the all-time high water mark from 1984. It doesn't take much wind to create 1-foot waves on the lake. Those would now reach just above the all-time high water mark.
If this happens, more debris is likely to enter the water.
Fishing boats are becoming more numerous out there now. For the most part, they're either using trolling motors or else just drifting, and appear to be enjoying the fact that they have the lake all to themselves at the moment.
