Kentucky -vs- Barkley

[Dave Stewart]

I was on north Barkley on Monday..it was clear and the fish were biting. Not sure how it looks there right now after all this rain...I heard it is muddy down on south Barkley for sure...not sure if the mud has come this far north or not. I will be on Barkley and Ky tomorrow so I guess I will find out...the wind and storms have kept me off the lakes yesterday and today. Tomorrow looks ok but Friday may go either way..looked at 3 forecasts this evening for Friday and two say 10-15 ssw wind and one says wind warnings with wind 21 mph plus ssw. Gotta love it when the wx folks can't get close to one another.
New flood warnings are out for the Ohio River down here...they went from minor warnings to major flood warnings so don't be surprised if you see a change coming in lake levels from what the TVA is currently forecasting.

Wind forecasts for Friday are climbing...now forecasting 20-30 on the weather channel. TVA revised their lake levels forecast last night..the lakes are on the rise...present forecast is for 362.5 sometime today...that is 2.5 ft above what it was yesterday and one foot above what it is right now. Watch out for floating debris...it will be out there for sure.
