I've posted this before, but if interested, check out this site. Mostly lists (from dropdown list) Rivers and Streams, but has 8-9 lakes listed. I think the data is updated every hour. Once you find a site you see in the list, click on the site number and you will get detailed information.
USGS Current Water Data for Kentucky
Thanks for posting, that is some great information.
johnboy1, yep, I guess we pay for this information(government run site), so why not use it. I wish they covered more 'Lakes' in KY, but if you look at the levels of the rivers/streams coming into the lakes you get an idea how much water is coming into the Lakes. I think they use these measurement points at various sites to help forecast flooding, but it is also useful to see for us how much water in coming into areas after a major rain event. I've actually seen these transmitter sites here at Georgetown on the Elkhorn Creek. They have Solar power and I guess they transmit data at least every hour. I think you can actually find the location of the transmitter when you click on the site and click/ask to show the location.
