Big Sandy Flooding

Let’s hope it’s not as severe as last time! It messed the lake up for a long time. The tullie population was wack for 5 years.

Let the melting begin.

As long as we can avoid any big rain events. But, I can see how it could be similar to last spring where it stayed higher for close to a month.

I have always like high water late springs up there.

wasn’t that flood during the summer? I remember we got like 14 inches of rain in 1 week, not sure what year that was, maybe 2012. I had bluegills swimming in my yard on fleming lake.

The flood was in 13 and happened after 11+” of rain over memorial weekend. I talked to a buddy that said the lake is up 3-4′ currently. Which is 3′ lower then in 2013.

My in-laws cabin is up on a hill away from the lake but they are even getting water in their basement right now. Tough going for lots of cabins…feel terrible for a lot of people.

If the wind picks up this weekend the south shores could be in danger! If you know someone with a cabin that hasn’t been up lately they might want to get up there!
