mudpuppy Jeff, not going today. Tripped over my trailer tongue as I was hooking up and landed on my left shoulder...gotta get x-rays. Called the spill gate hotline on a tip and verified that spill gates are open. Exelon sure knows how to screw things up. 3 years ago

Flyrob Thanks for the info Mike. Seem odd that they are running spillers with levels only slightly elevated. The good news is the discharge water doesn't look really dirty so once they're out of spill the river should clean up fast. Hopefully our injuries... Show more 3 years ago

mudpuppy Thanks Rob, best news this week. I have not heard of much happening on the flats just yet. With water temps gradually rising (and hopefully clearing) it shouldn't be too long until things break loose. 3 years ago
