Lake Conroe Open
 
From The San Jacinto River Authority:
 
SJRA officials have reduced the rate of release from the Lake Conroe dam to 13,765 cfps. Officials are attempting to slow releases to the extent possible to reduce flows downstream while staying within operational protocols and recognizing the need to be prepared for potential rainfall later in the week.
 
The water crested at a level of 204.5’ and is currently at 203.3. [See Figure 1 below for a graph showing the water level in Lake Conroe over the past several days.]
 
Even though the lake is still near the 100-year flood level, SJRA officials have decided to allow motorized vessels on the reservoir beginning at sunrise on Monday (5/30/16) morning. Boaters should exercise caution and good judgment if they choose to use the reservoir as there is still a high risk of submerged objects and floating debris.
 
For data regarding when the various rivers and streams in our area will reach their crest and begin to recede, visit the National Weather Service’s River Forecast Center:

Real time data regarding lake level and release rate is available on SJRA’s homepage:

@sillystring Really, especially since there was more rain heading for us, causing a rise in the level. Luckily, it looks like the rain will pass right under us, giving us some relief. Pshew.
