We’re getting some light rain this morning with around .31″ left to come. It seems like Wunderground has dropped the rain total in the forecast. The Beaverkill and lower East Branch have a small bump showing on the gauge this morning but so far not enough to matter. The upper East Branch is holding steady at 900 cfs. The level of Pepacton Reservoir has dropped to 99.9%. That’s worth watching if it drops a little more. The spill over Cannonsville dam has decreased to 85 cfs this morning. The water temps are finally climbing to good numbers with the lower EB and the Beaverkill both peaking over 50 degrees. It looks like the daytime air temps will drop a bit over the next few days but will still be in the 50’s. It finally feels like Spring is here.
