Today looks like a little olive day. We woke up this morning to overcast skies and rain. The air temp should stay in the low 70’s so the water temperatures should not climb as fast or as high as they have over the past few days. The lower East and the Mainstem are starting off a little warmer than we’d like to see but the rain just started and hasn’t had any effect on the flows yet. Keep and eye on the gauges for the latest information. Hopefully we see all the rivers in the system rise throughout the day. We should get a total of 1/4″ of water this morning with the possibility of thunderstorms adding more. Accuweather is calling for 3/4″ of rain overnight which would be awesome for the rivers. Along with olives definitely carry isonychia patterns on days like this.
