Normal is about 504.05, or about an inch higher than it was this morning. Normal is depicted in the lower right corner of Bizer's chart. Readings at
www.bizer.com/bztnews.htm#lakelevel also indicate the current deviation from norm.

New Hampshire has been keeping daily records since 1982. Only once (07-Nov-2001 to 14-Feb-2002) has the lake fallen below 502. Even falling below 502.5 is rare.
