Long Story Short lets hope we get a few dry days, and then lake starts to drop.......
Overall I think they Dam operators are doing the best they can
Rain all week. Tonight through tomorrow, 2". Another inch for the rest of this week. No "dry days" for a while. With runoff, the 3" of rain becomes 6+" of lake level rise for Winnipesaukee, even more for Winnisquam and Silver Lake.

I agree the dam operators are doing the best they can but Winni is going to be very high for several weeks to come and who knows how much more rain may come during the weeks it takes to lower the lake to "normal" levels.
