[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1316387, member: 18945"] Started down during the night, and has dropped about 1 vertical foot, which is good. Raining again this morning-- which is bad. There are no dams on this river (East Fork San Jacinto River) upstream of me, but there is one upstream on the West Fork to form Lake Conroe. The SJ River Authority opened the gates on that dam Thurs morning to relieve the high water North of the dam, which meant a bottleneck where the two forks converge just before both flow into Lake Houston about 30 miles downstream. There are no control gates at Lake Houston, just a high water emergency spillway. That means 'my' river fork doesn't flow as fast, can't drain well and it backs up. I understand their reasoning tho. Lots of high $ subdivisions on the west fork around Lake Conroe and above--not much but National Forest on the East Fork--and a few fools like me. [/QUOTE]
