If you happen to be travelling west on Rte 140 in Tilton, and look to the right as you cross the Winnipesaukee river, you will see a house on the shore of the river with a dock. In the past that dock has had a lot of space between bottom of dock and water. Not so much space this year, still! Outflow from Winnipesaukee had a direct effect on Opechee, Winnisquam, Silver Lake (still very high as of a few weeks ago), the Winnipesaukee river, and of course the Merrimack. As others have said, don't expect a big drawdown as long as we keep getting the rain in buckets, even if it is from scattered storms. Winnipesaukee watershed is huge.
