The Rain in Spain (Opps Mondy)

[NAGG]

When we were living up at Monduran we were told by sunwater that because of the shape of the [eg Funnel] that when the lake is 100% that 1 inch of the suface area can be close to 10% capacity and as the water level dropps down the more lake level hieght = less % lost

Cheers Foxie

Thanks Foxie ...... I thought as much - particularly when you see the height of the spillway ( how far to go before she starts to run over ????)

Whitto,
We are getting all our rain coming down from the north, lake only up 5.5cm in 24 hours but could start rising faster again with the rain we are having now.
What we need now is some strong wind to keep the oxygen in the water.

Cheers Foxie

The rain followed me home from Innisfail last weekend John.......Lots more to come.......Your right about all the new fresh flowing in, without Oxygenated water and rotting vegetation fishing is going to be interesting........Hitting the Runoff inflows would be the best bet possibly.

As the water rises it's lifing and floating a few good logs of the bank, suggest people might have to take it a bit easy speed wise first thing in the mornings. Mick

Good tip Mick, they are a bit like Icebergs. plenty more around them than what u see on the surface.

Update Monduran rose .055 metres in a 24hrs from the 16/02/10 -17/02/10
and in the last 24hrs 17/02/10 -17/02/10 the lake rose over .518 so inflow has increased greatly and still a lot more rain coming today

NOW 43%

Cheers Foxie

[Whitto]

Thanks Foxie......Happy Days ahead......That is an extrodinary amount of water......You will now need to call in your GPS Fav spots.

[Whitto]

Somewhat slower day today Rain wise at Mondy......I would think the runoff would continue for a few days yet.......Reports from Pete Kyle and Brian will be interesting......If the bottom end of the Dam isn't dirty (should be getting that way)......I think they will do well.
