Lake water level

She says...never mind.
The rocks haven't moved so if the water is down6 inches or 16 inches, as long as you follow the navaids you are in good shape. As it goes down further, there may be spaces near shore (marina slips) where you touch bottom. Nevertheless, the rocks and shallows marked by buoys haven't moved. Plenty of water to enjoy all over the lake. Trailer ramps may need a watchful eye, but that's on you. There is a lot of variation; just have to look and maybe dip a paddle.

If you zoom in on the map view and select the weirs station, you’ll get a nice visual chart on the right of the lake level (you can also select table mode for more details). You can then also zoom into the chart to see more detail too.

If my math is correct, the lake is down approximately 8 3/4" from full pool...Is this correct?

Actually looks like down 11.16” from full pool:

Full pool: 504.32
Current level: 503.39 as of 6am today (10/4)
Difference: 0.93’ (or 11.16”)

It seems like everyone is in agreement.

The difference I'd like to see--calculated--
is how far down it is from this year's extreme height.

(I've lost trees over here).

According to Bizer the high point this year was around 504.9 and we are currently at 503.37 so the math looks like this:

504.9 - 503.37 = 1.53 x 12 = 18.36 Inches from the high point in July to today

Now over full at the height of this season 504.9 - 504.32 = .58 x 12 = 6.96 inches over full pool

Over all the high water really wasn't that bad this year, I have seen it much worse.... What made it seem so bad is the duration the water was above full Pool.... which was considerable....
