    Default Just got a call


    From a friend and he registered 6.9 inches on his rain gauge the past 48 hrs. TVA Running 172,000 thru Chick Dam and Lake level 2 feet over summer pool. If that's not enough, rain fore cast for next 8 out of 10 days. This could get ugly.

    News just showed I had over 2" of rain since midnight, so.... We probably had around 4" yesterday thru midnight, plus the 2" so far today, I'm not far behind. Maybe it will turn cold enough to snow a bunch so we won't complain about the rain fall. LOL
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    We are just in from driving to the property that we inherited to see first hand what this much rain would do to the creek and branches that run through it. We saw some awesome and dangerous roaring water on the way!

    Unfortunately all this water is headed your way, they are actually holding some of it in Cherokee and Douglas as they show no generation (release) much to speak of for the next three days, hence our lakes will rise about 15ft over next 3 days.

    Rain gauge at the house showed 7 inches of rain.
