It's rain forty miles upstream as well. Take a look at the Big Black river from any highway crossing it and tell me it's 'local rain' that's causing it to be forty feet wider and seven feet deeper in water than normal.

The entrances to Northbay and Twin Harbor looked to be barely accessible due to the low level. The shoreline all the way to Hwy 43 also showed how low the level was. As shallow as the RBR is it doesn't take much rainfall upstream to dramatically raise the level in a short period of time. RBR is not a flood control reservoir but they do an excellent job of controlling levels to help with flooding. The level in RBR cannot be allowed above a certain level or it will breach the dam. If you think Jackson has seen flooding in the past just wait until that happens.

Which just proves again that the REZ cannot be used for significant flood control. See that word "significant" it's an important word to understand, it doesn't mean zero, but it does mean the Rez doesn't lower downstream flooding an amount enough to make a difference.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-45847035180074869982019-01-04T12:10:52.592-06:002019-01-04T12:10:52.592-06:00Pretty sure it was dropped this year to help get r...Pretty sure it was dropped this year to help get rid of the invasive plant they have in Petersnatchy Bay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-61641490520599980882019-01-04T11:51:20.285-06:002019-01-04T11:51:20.285-06:00I have said it 1,000 times.
