This morning Lake Hartwell hit the 649.93' mark. The normal (full pool) is  
660 feet above sea level. We're currently down ten feet and when we reach 
twelve  feet I will remove all boats from the water. At that point most of 
the boat  ramps will be unusable and boating on the lake really becomes unsafe 
due to  trees that were left on the bottom when the lake was built. I will 
have to  use the four wheel drive to get mine and my neighbors boats out. I 
know we have  had a lack of rain, but the Army Corps of Engineers is still 
releasing water at  a rate greater than the inflow. We went through this 
three years ago, but I was  really hoping that we would never see the twenty 
four foot mark again. Looks  like we are heading in that direction once again.
 
Rummy......send rain.....lots of it.
