Reading this article: State committee rethinking normal Winnipesaukee basin lake levels - it seems like flooding around the lake starts at 504.32 or 504.82 (depending on how you read the sentence "Twenty years ago, in 1985, the Army Corps identified 1,158 residences and 115 businesses at risk on the four lakes, two-thirds of them on Lake Winnipesaukee, where flood damage begins to occur when the lake is six inches above "full" at 504.32 feet above sea level."

As rain is forecast to continue, are properties on the lake at risk of flooding?
