Good to see this for Lake O. I wish we were seeing it here in Texas on our lakes, but we are still way below normal even with the rains we have had.

[StormTracker]

So far, so good, but we're gonna need some rain soon, so as to maintain the level above the 12.5 ft. bottom-end threshold! I hope Texas gets some good rains soon! Keep me posted...ST

Texas got some very beneficial rains yesterday. Some of the lakes in SE TX are approaching normal levels again while others are still down several feet. Definitely in better shape than we were, but not normal yet with 12"-15" deficits all over SE TX even with the rains we had yesterday.

That's good news! Is Mother-Nature a member of Storm2K? She must have read our discussion yesterday!!!
