GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users

 

We have a strong pacific cold front heading our way next week.  This front promises to bring moisture, snow, and more importantly, cold are.  This cold air may bring temperatures below freezing.  Because of that, there is a very good chance will will be shutting off water to the docks and the service dock (pump-a-head) on Monday or Tuesday.  If we do this, we will not turn the water back on until March.

 

Use the oportunity of this weekend to rinse of your boats, use the last of the water and pump out your boats.  It is likely the last opportunity you will have this year.

 

If the temperatures look like they will not dip below freezing, we will leave the water on until Tuesday of the following week.  At that time it WILL be shut off for the year.

 

IS THE LAKE COMING BACK UP ALREADY.

It appears that it may.  It appears we bottomed out at 4194.2 in early October and have actually come back up 2/10ths of a foot.  This is an unusual trend.  We usually bottom out in mid November.

 

Last year we bottomed out mid November at 4193.9  If this years trend continues we could be at 4194.5 or 4194.6 at that time for a significant net gain for the year.
