I will give you a little more information on Pomme. Currently the sattelite link that give the lake level in real-time (updates every 15 minutes I believe) is down. Don't know what exactly is wrong with it, maybe just that I touched it! Current lake level appears to be about 843.8 as of 2:30 p.m. today. The temperature is updated every Monday and Friday morning and just carried over during the week. Also it is taken at the dam and river below the dam. So while it will give you a general idea of lake temperature trends you can certain find warmer or cooler water depending upon where on the lake you are.

Finally I know several will be wanting to know when Pomme will begin releasing more water. Currently our Resevoir Control Center folks are trying to catch up with and stabilize Truman Lake, once they are able to do that we will be told to begin staging up our outflows. I will do my best to keep up and post that information as it becomes available.

Finally if you want to track it yourself here is a link that shows on one page the inflows to Pomme from Lindley Creek, Pomme River, the Pomme River below the dam and even Truman Lake. It is long but you can bookmark it and go to it anytime.

For some reason, and even the guys in our water control section didn't know why, but most of the lake sites were down and not reporting, the rivers sites were but not the lakes. This morning it looks like they are transmitting intermittently, last one on Pomme this morning at 0530 showed us at 844.10 I haven't looked at Trumans crest prediction but yeah they will be making the electricity and sending it down to LoZ to make more with at at pretty rapid pace to try to catch up. One of the guys checked the upper Pomme side yesterday, PP Bridge access was chocolate milk, Bolivar Landing was dingy but fishable, lightfoot was fine. That water will move down slowly and often makes it as far as Lightfoot. depends on wind, additional inflow, how much we release etc. etc. etc.

Update for today, (Friday). We began stepping up the outflow from the dam, will be at 2000 CFS by end of day. Not much compared to what Truman is generating with but enough for us to begin to lower the lake.

One last website for you. Shows the forecast for the lake levels for the Kansas City District and expected releases.
