Hi all,

It looks like the fair site is most likely in flood conditions - at least according to the USGS graph. David knows the specific numbers but I think I remember it being 10 ft floods the lots, 11 ft starts to get into the 8. Right now it's up ober 14 ft.


Love,

Sam

It looks like its currently at about 14.5 feet at noti gauge, which
means there is about 2 foot in the village. The morning that I shot
this video, it was about 15 foot at the gauge..

A LUMPer and I were just OnSite. Neck high on Sauna Sea Dragon; can go way higher. Noting low levels to known previous markers, they feel the current USGS official gauge height is indicating ~3 feet above actual previous OCF markers. It seems they are in-process of re-calibrating. One indicator was Marshall's Landing canoe put-in where access would normally be at gauge height there was no water in sight.

Here is the Veggy version with the "old" calibration:
"Once the site is saturated (like now), about 1.5" to 2" in 24- 36 hours will bring the river level up.
A height gage reading of 10 feet is about bank-full at Strawberry Lane.
At height gage readings above 13 feet, there's flooding through the paths, and starting to rise above the bale dams.
So, it seems that we have three measurement systems: English, Metric and usgs.gov!
HAPPY HUMUS!
