Rough going over the spillway!!

[JHill]

I never thought in my life time I would see a lake that went over the spillway. I'm gonna have to get down there this weekend to witness this. The water way above the red line with this happening. So much for spring time fishing in Ky this year.

Here is some pics I took yesterday of rough river. As of this morning there say it will crest at 533 but they took down that prediction si I guess it is any ones guess. The rain we had come in yesterday was the cherry on the top. Trust me when I say there nervuse and not 100% the dam will hold it all.

Thank you Jhill.
I have some good news There dropping the lake down so it does not get above the 525 mark that means it is wide open.. I'm going down there in a little while to take some pic's of the spill way I bet they have never had it wide open. They were walking on egg shells yesterday and they would not tell any one anything all they would say is it would set a record..

Drove down to Rough this morning. Water and fish were going down the spillway. The COE also was releasing water out of the bottom of the dam. All ramps are well covered with no parking space available. Water was up to the bottom of bridges at North Fork and Peter Cave! Also, drove over to Nolin. Water is on the parking lots at all rampsites and camp sites are flooded. Water was up to the bathrooms at the Wax ramp, Iberia and Dog creek road gates were closed and locked. Nolin has about 20 feet before it goes to over the spillway, if it gets that high, people south of Elizabethtown close to Nolin River would probably need a boat to get around. Given all the flooding on the Ohio River, the Green River basin at flooded capacity it is going to be a long while before these lakes come down to summer pool.
