Lots of flooding concerns around the lake this weekend.

So this past week the weather and mother nature have not been kind to the lake region.
We continue to be under a flood warning until 8pm tonight. The flood watch continues until
1pm on Saturday.

Here is our weekend weather forecast which unfortunately includes more rain chances.

Thursday - High of 81, Low of 69, with an 80% chance of rain
Friday - High of 81, Low of 67, with a 60% chance of rain.
Saturday - High of 85, Low of 66, with a 30% chance of rain.
Sunday - High of 85, Low of 66, with a 20% chance of rain.

If you or someone you know is coming to the lake over the weekend be aware that the water is extremely dirty due to all of the runoff and there is alot of debris out there. They opened the flood
gates at Bagnell Dam yesterday and the lake level has gone down, unfortunately that means
land down stream of the dam has been flooded and alot of personal property has been affected.

If you have plans to come to the lake please be careful and always remember "turn around don't drown".
