Kentucky Lake going up up up

[double browtine]

A friend sent me this via text,

Fwd: We are working with the US Army Corps of Engineers in a flood control operation to help reduce the flood crests on the lower Ohio and Mississippi Rivers. We are reducing releases out of Kentucky Dam, which will cause the lake elevation to rise. We're forecasting going above summer pool levels (359') on Sunday and reaching about five feet above summer pool by the end of next week (364'). Consider removing any equipment and property that could be impacted by rising lake levels. #KentuckyLake

Looks like the fish will be really scattered in the bushes and trees now.

Wonder if this will be applied to other lakes?

I'm sure Barkley will go up to. I don't think they have closed the canal in years.
