Random thoughts
Thanks to those who minimize their wake. It is appreciated.
Boat wake may be 90 degrees from the wind, and impacts the lake much differently than wind. It is twice as bad for the lake shore to be hit with both wind and wake.
If there is another flood within a year or two, it is more than coincidence. It should be considered as evidence of climate change.
I wonder what the real damage will be. The shoreline has been eroded. There has been a heavy dose of silt added to the lake. The lake ecosystem has experienced a second flood within seven months. The impact to the lake might take five years to recover if no more episodic events occur.
Sailboats, kayaks and cameras is my Memorial day weekend theme.
All the web gathered data from the state's monitoring sites points out that the dam operators are doing a good job. They estimate three weeks till normal water level. I believe them.
