has the lake level increased any?
As of friday the lake level for Lake Harris is within .49' of the historic norm at 61.05', haven't went to look but hope to this week. Lake Griffin hasn't shown much change but check it on the 'out and about'.--shu
Went 'out and about' Lake Harris ramps show water still about a foot below where the high water mark is on the posts, but higher than in the spring. Lake Griffin at the 'train' water looks to be a little higher but the marker shows still 1.5' low. Slab's boathouse will tell the whole story.--shu
Even when his boat floats it's still low from what it use to be. I would like the whole chain to come up 2'Quote:

Are they through with the Apopaka cannel? EJL
Yes, the dredging is done, there currently are a few homes for sale in my neighborhood and a few lesser priced across the canal. My neighborhood is on Tammi dr and the other is Lois. Speckanators wife's a Realtor close by, but don't let her sell you anything on Griffin. Lol
I fish Beauclair, Carlton, Dora and my canals. Pull up my address on Google map.
