Re: a very productive snowday
Glad to see someone got some progresout of this snowstorms. It's finally letting up over here to the East of you. So, I'm going to spend today much like you did - in the garage, working on something. What? I don't know yet. There's always something.
Keep at it man, the snow can't stay forever... ....can it? -Sam.

Re: a very productive snowday
Glad we're not getting snow, but we're getting so much rain here in the Ozarks that flooding along the White River is a real problem.
First time in more than 30 years that Norfork Dam has had to open their flood gates. Bull Shoals Dam is supposed to open their flood gates tomorrow. I'm not as good of a photographer as See-Ten, but for those who haven't ever been privileged to see such a roaring-water sight, here's a photo taken of almost a hundred thousand gallons a second going through Norfork Dam floodgates yesterday early-AM, and an earlier "before" picture I had in file: |

Re: a very productive snowday
68shortstep,
first time I have EVER seen water cresting the Norfork dam like that. hold on down there. it looks like an active rainy season.

Re: a very productive snowday
In my earlier post I said: ".... here's a photo taken of almost a hundred thousand gallons a second ....."
I read the newspaper wrong. That's a hundred thousand cubic feet per second, which is almost 700,000 gallons per second !!! It's a mess downstream from the dam. |
