Are the water levels any closer to summer pool on the southern end of the lakes?
According to the following web site, lower Ky is 40 ft higher than summer pool and Barkley is 44 ft higher.

Think th elower elevation mihgt be the tailwater.
From the looks of the tailwater elevation report at Pickwick Dam I seriously doubt it is much different.
No south is flooded as well,was 373 here now 372 and dropping,at a 1 1/2 a day would take about 8-9 days before it gets to summer pool.
And kind of suspect them to take longer once flooding in nearby places like Dover is taken care of,may hold water back for those downstream to help out,dont know.
Most likly will make some sort of annoucement as to that drawdown to let all know.
Parts of marshall county near the ohio are flooding,suspect they will do all in their power to help or relieve what they can.When and if they can.
While its a great place to fish,its hard to lose everything in a flood,
I can make do with some minor inconviences,lets hope the rains stop for a bit.
