That's 17 gates letting more than a million cubic feet of water per second roll thru. One cubic foot is 7.48 gallons. That's a lot of water per SECOND. I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House.

If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time. NRA Life Member

I've seen Hobbs Island under water twice. This was before all the development along Pin Hook Creek and Jones Valley. Wouldn't surprise me if lots of houses get flooded plus more than a few slide down the mountainside. Just because you raise the foundation doesn't mean you still aren't in a flood zone.

How bad will it have to get to open the trash gate? If need be would they open a lock too? I think the trash gate was open in 1973 when we has a big flood and then in 93 or 94 seems like. To my knowledge the lock has never been open to allow flood water to flow. I'm not sure that it's even possible. We have a member that rarely posts that is a lock operator and he's clarified this for me but I can't remember what he said. I'll see if I can contact him.

As wet as everything is, every drop of water is headed that way Last edited by IDOT; 02/09/20 11:28 PM.

'73 was when the Paint Rock was coming over highway 72 . It washed gravel from under the rail road bed and the tracks were suspended in air. For those of you who are familiar with the area , think about that. Could happen again this week. "Why do you ask"? Always vote the slowest path to socialism.

Corn planting chances not looking good at all.
