Newcomers,

They are releasing about 1,000 cubic feet per second at the Lakeport Dam today. They can and likely will increase that, but it does raise the water levels downstream.

Here is a clickable map that you can use to see what is going on at the dam and how high the lake is. http://www2.des.state.nh.us/RTi_Home/winni.asp

In my opinion, the lake will continue to rise, perhaps another 4" to 6". In the past, there have been boating restrictions when the lake is high. This ofter moves the No Wkae Zone out 500' from shore. We will come close to the level that this restriction is employed, in my opinion.
