The release from Cannonsville is now 300 cfs. We were hit with decent rain overnight and the flow at Hale Eddy is 2,040 cfs. It is still rising but will will drop as soon as the rain stops. The flow at Stilesville is only 331 cfs this morning and perfect for wading. The rain should clear out by mid day with maybe a little sun poking through. Today looks like a good streamer day but there are a lot of olives on our door. At this flow look for risers on the edges and the tailouts of long pools. Once the rain stops the West Branch should drop and clear quickly. It looks like the East side of the drainage was spared most of the heavy rain with just a bump in flow on the Beaverkill and lower East Branch. The West Branch above the reservoir is flowing in over 2000 cfs which is great news for the reservoir watchers.
