Lake level
 

Is the lake abnormally high for this time of year?,

Lake is full
 

Yup - lake is full - well above normal for this time of year. See daily graphic at https://www.des.nh.gov/sites/g/files...-graph2024.pdf

A lot of rain and warm conditions leading up till the last week.

DES looks for a certain amount of snow melt to fill the lakes in the spring. If there is less snow---there are many factors they look at to figure outflow in Lakeport, including the downstream effects. Winni level is only part of the equation. Give them credit for doing a good job, and stop worrying.

Opechee seemed high, and the winni river is flowing strongly through Laconia and into Winnisquam high on the banks... so I think they are doing everything that they can with the infrastructure they have.
