Nothing To See, Move Along...

Post by Jim O'Bryan »

While the river flooded its bank as it does a couple times each year. The ice damn broke up and it is flowing easily. No damage yet.

Ice damn gone, river moving smoothly.

Red line shows normal spring high water flood. Blue line severe flooding, every couple springs. Purple shows high water line the year it destroyed Settler's Landing area, Eddy's Boat Docks, and other structures.

As you can see we are pretty far from serious high water. Every year the river rises above the wall on the left in front of 11 River. Which is why they are way above it.

This morning.

Red line shows path of river when severely flooded.

Nothing to see, move along.

Or stop by Lakewood Observer's Photo Galleries and see over 100 of the ice, and over a 200,000 great images of Lakewood by some of our finest photographers.
