OT: Re: [ale] Water levels

[Greg Freemyer]

Another cumulative foot for the 3 ACF lakes yesterday.  So we are have
a 25% reduction in the cumulative lake water deficit compared to 6
weeks ago.  (ie. from -26 ft to -19 ft)

And Allatoona looks to only be down a foot or 2 from winter goal.  I
know, not part of the same system, and not feeding the Apalachicola
Bay, but Cobb gets its water from it.

FYI: The entire discharge from Lanier downstream in Dec. was 50% of Nov.

32,540 units vs. 67,305 units.  That should stay reduced as long as
there is water available in the lower 2 lakes to send to Florida.
Looks like about 8 weeks (ie. 8 Lake Acres) of available supply in
those lower lakes with no rain.
