Was up in Horshoe Bay over Labor Day and the Perdnales was basically a small stream at that point.ABATTBQ87 said:Blitz88 said:

Pedernales river at johnson city @ 15 feet, 1 foot over flood stage. That water is also headed to Lake Travis
Didn't it get that high in '98?Quote:
The Llano River in Kingsland is at a 500 year high. The water is higher on the FM 2900 bridge than I have ever seen. Only a few feet below the bridge now.
I work at Horseshoe Bay and houses along the Colorado River are flooding; all gates at Max Starke Dam are open but will probably not be able to keep up with the tremendous amount of water coming from Llano and local tributaries.MrJonMan said:Was up in Horshoe Bay over Labor Day and the Perdnales was basically a small stream at that point.ABATTBQ87 said:Blitz88 said:

They have been releasing from several upper Brazos lakes for a week now, river is already starting to show the increase in volume way down at the mouth. Still going to go higher, but manageable.EMY92 said:
They're releasing water from Lake Whitney, the Brazos is going to get a lot of water.
Travis expected to be full at the end of today!Charpie said:
Travis expected to rise an additional 10 feet.
