We've been having some intense isolated thunderstorms lately, with hard rain down by the harbor, so I thought I'd check out Gwynns. I drove to check the gauge at Washington Blvd, and it was at 7.0! I drove up via Dead Run, and it was raging-----scary-high! I got to the put-in at Dickeyville, and the water was barely above the minimum. Long story short, most of the water was coming in from Dead Run and points downstream----Dead Run almost doubled the volume!! From Dead Run downstream, the level was nice (4.0), above that, it was rocky and abusive. Fun fact! FYI.
