If they are going to the old winter pool of 664 they should be there by Monday...However mother nature will always out trump the COE. Next weeks forecast calls for rain about every day. If we get enough it will rise.

Does anybody know how long they plan on holding it lower than normal to do maintenance on the water tower?
Here's the word from the Green River Lake - US Army Corps of Engineers, Louisville District Facebook page. "The lower winter pool (historical 664 pool) is to facilitate maintenance work in the Control Tower. It is only scheduled for this winter and the lake will return to 668 when the work is complete, weather permitting." If anyone has not looked at their Facebook page it would be worth the effort to check it out. They post outflow rates, gate settings and surface temp most everyday along with answering questions from posters.
