I just visited the Dam Bureau web site and I noticed the flow at Lakeport was down to 230 CFS. Looking at the operational information I found the following message:

The discharge at Lakeport Dam (Lake Winnipesaukee) is approx. 230 cfs today. The level
of Lake Winnipesaukee is nearly 502.91, which is just about 2 inches below the normal
water level for this time of year.

We have finally recovered from the rains and floods of last October. Another great job by the folks that work the dams!

Hopefully, we will start to get a bit of rain, mid-week only of course, so that the lake can build to summer levels. There is not much inflow due to the lack of snow on the ground.
