Default Good news for the Merrimack basin

As of Tuesday the Merrimack in Manchester had already crested at just below flood stage and is currently almost at action stage or 1 ft below flood.Forecast is for the river to be 1 ft below action stage or 2 ft below flood stage by tomorrow and continue to drop.We've been real fortunate this year with a nice slow melt and low rainfall during the melt.Keeper can speak to this but it looks like this should help with being able to keep Lakeport flows high enough to keep Winni from flooding like last year unless we see very large rainfall amounts in the near future.
