    They are basically shut off now....the largest flow coming through any of them is 175 CFS...that is a dribble..

    If that's the case I haven't looked but they well be coming up. But 175 cubic feet a second is still a lot of water not compared to what it's is usually but still alot.

    Arkabutla rose, from 12 PM yesterday to 12 PM today....02 feet...at that rate with no rain it will take 50 days to come up one foot...without rain and a good bit of it, these lakes will not go up much.

    The MS River could go up 25 feet and it would not matter.

    Gas is at $2.6112 on the wholesale market...look for it to be up at the pump 10-15 cents in a few days.

    With the lake as low as it is now that trickel their letting out mean's alot and if we get some rain they'll open it up some more.For some reason March 21st is stuck in my head as the shut off date on a normal yr but if they suspect flooding they will keep it open longer.Then with my luck we won't get rain after shutoff like 3-4yrs ago the fishing sucked that yr but the next was good because of all the grass a bushes that grew in the low water yr.
