July 10Jul 10 Lake Travis Info 659.90 feet on a conservation pool of 681. The rainfall in the past week has raised the water level more than half way from its deficit last week towards full capacity. My interest in the lake info is twofold 1) it is an incredibly interesting reservoir WRT water levels and extreme lows recently and 2) have cousins who live on the lake at Lago.

July 10Jul 10 Why can't they get the surface area right? Is the 1M acres the lake surface size while full?
July 10Jul 10 Travis went over 660' at 5:50am this morning according to the LCRA River Operations Report page. Gates are still open at Wirtz and Starke so should continue to rise. *Edit to ask: Anyone know what level sometimes islands are covered? Been so long I don't remember. Edited July 10Jul 10 by ftf82

July 10Jul 10 Went outside this morning for a quick walk and it was 69 degrees in SW Austin. On July 10th. Nice! Was 75 last night at 8:30.

For some reason, 668' is in my head. But there is also a lot of bourbon and vodka in my head.

July 10Jul 10 The deep state LCRA caught wind on my 661 prediction from last week and are doing everything they can to prevent me being right. Or they are generating electricity.

July 12Jul 12 Just had a nice thunder boomer roll through here with a brief downpour and, now, the lingering pitterpatter of light stuff. Windows are open, and it’s 73 degrees at 12:45 pm in the middle of July.
