The release from Cannonsville has been dropped to 300 cfs. They are counting on tomorrow’s rain to meet the downstream flow targets. Tomorrow’s forecast changes every time we look. We should get somewhere between 1/2″ and 1″ of rain. The latest updates have us closer to the 1/2″ mark. Yesterday ended up okay once the wind died down in the evening. Nymphing was decent early and we had good caddis and isonychia spinners in the evening. There were some iso duns, olives, and heptagenia out there but the caddis were the most prolific. The weeds floating down were annoying but manageable. They’ll definitely settle today with the lower release.
