Your water-level worries are over ...

We're heading up to the bay this weekend, hopefully to close up shop. Thanks to all for posting about the lake level. We were up there last weekend and the water was up to the bottom of the dock; probably over the top now if the latest postings are accurate. Hope the boat's still there.
Came up two weeks ago to see the water level rise over 12 inches in 48 hours; incredible. Perhaps the authorities will be posting a lake-wide no-wake zone as they did a few years ago.
Anyway, did some quick (very quick) math, and came up with a little over one-and-a-half TRILLION gallons of water needed to bring the 72 square miles of lake up one foot. Lots of electricity in there for the taking when they let it out.
