Marburg Creek Reservoir: High Water

We’ve had more than 4 inches of rain at our place during the last week. Fort Yargo State Park probably got more than we did since we’re in a slightly drier area.

The lake level this morning was about 6 inches higher than a month ago.

The water has already dropped about 12 inches from its high point judging by the line of pine needles left by the boat launch when the water receded. It is likely that the deck of the water overflow tower was submerged when the water was at its highest.
