Rain in B'ham has NO affect on our lake. Look at a map. Our watershed consists of not only the river but the creeks also. None of those creeks go anywhere near b'ham. I have seen so many times on here about rain in north GA. Our watershed is west GA below I-20 and east central Alabama. How many of you have ever driven I-20 thru west GA. Did you cross the Tallapoosa River? NO. You do cross the Little Tallapoosa. It's headwaters are just barely north of I-20 and the Tallapoosa's head waters are south of I-20. The watershed for any impoundment can not be any further than local runoff away from the headwaters of its source. It is physically and geographically impossible. Remember we are talking watershed, not water table. There is a big difference.

As for the rains we have had, they have been way to localized and scattered to have any significant impact. Three different times I have been on the lake during these rains/storms and managed to go around them, or stay put while they passed on the opposite side of the lake. In order to have an impact it will have to rain over the entire watershed for days on end. An afternoon thunderstorm over a small portion of the lake may not even replace that days evaporation.

Streamgager, are you still visiting the site since going back home? If so please correct me if I am wrong.
