pogo Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Went and had a look at the entrance to Narra lakes yesterday, It looks pretty full Anybody have an idea when the council will open it up More rain all this week Maybe we need to be on standby for an impromptu Fishraider social for high tide a day or two after it is opened. regards POGO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilm Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Had a look on the way to work this morning, it's not quite ready yet, and the big surf yesterday hasn't really helped as it's pushed sand up onto the beach. With luck a storm forecast for tomorrow and hopefully smaller surf will see it break (or get broken) by the end of the week. Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilm Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I was fishing at McCarrs creek with my son this evening (we didn't get a thing - the livies were picked at but that was it - too much rain and cool water I guess that far back from the ocean) and there was hardly a drop of rain - lightning all round but no rain, so I don't know how much rain there was in the Narra lakes catchment. I'll have another look on my way to work tomorrow - I'll check the gutters as well (couldn't see yesterday as the surf was all white water.

neilm Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Not enough rain in the catchment for it to break open yet, I looked this morning at about 7am. Late for work so didn't have time to check the gutters... Hopefully storms today? Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Neil If past 10 years are any indication, it won't open by itself and will require a bulldozer to open it as happened last time. The problem is there has to be a higher level in the lake to open it, than what the residents will put up with, especially when it has been closed for so long.

bung Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 only about 5-10mm in the narra catchment last night so not enough. but boy was it coming down at my joint! (artarmon). you can expect further (slow) increases in water levels over the next few days as groundwater seeps into the creeks and then lake. still needs about 0.4m increase before council will open the lake.
