Question It is all relative...

With Winnipesaukee sitting at about 10 to 12" above normal and outflow at the dam at maximum people are still worried about property damage from the high water. After reading the article in the Union Leader (see excerpt below) I am happy the lake is ONLY 12" above normal! Imagine a water level 28" or more above normal...

"Winnisquam is 28 inches higher than normal for this time of year and many docks around the lake are actually under water. Silver Lake is nearly four feet above normal and has flooded Gardners Grove Road in Belmont."

Our dock, if it were still in, would be just under water now... but I am concerned about errosion around the foundation at the shore.
