Up she rises

Lake Travis, still taking in water from the rains in the western Hill Country, isn’t satisifed with 700 feet above msl:

"LCRA now forecasts that Lake Travis will peak between 701 and 702 feet msl based on rain that has already fallen. However, more rain is expected today throughout the region. Be advised: If there is much additional rain, at a time when the lakes and river are already full, more floodgates may be opened with little or no notice."

Radar’s almost clear at this hour, but that’s expected to change by dawn. Wait and see.

UPDATE By late Wednesday, the forecast was 703 feet msl. Not much on radar, except some really powerful storms around Bay City, southwest of Galveston.
