With the lake elevation now back to normal "full lake" (504.32 feet, exactly, as of today) and dry weather for at least the next couple of days (Fire weather watch in effect), I think we can declare the spring 2008 flood potential OVER. Great job, dam operators!

This does NOT mean we can't get a flood... only that the spring melt has come and gone, and the lake is back to normal. If there's a situation that causes flooding this year, we can start a new thread on it, because it won't be part of the spring melt process that we were all concerned about. What a colossal process that was! And to think, it managed to happen without a colossal flood. Miraculous!
