Well, if you consider anything within a foot of 793 being full pool (which I do!) As of Monday April 13, 2009, the water level is 792.78. I check this almost every day and you can too at https://lakes.alabamapower.com/ You can actually check all the lakes Alabama Power controls here.

The official word came today &quot;Due to continuing dry conditions, a variance has been approved to fill Harris to summer pool elevation of 793 by April 1st.&quot; What this means is that we can start enjoying all our summer activities a full month earlier. Usually, the lake begins to fill on April 1 and reaches full pool by May 1. In other words, start unpacking your lake gear because summer is coming early this...(<a href="http://www.ilovelakewedowee.com/blogs/leisel_caldwell/archive/2009/03/10/wonder-full-news-for-lake-wedowee.aspx">read more</a>)<img src="http://www.ilovelakewedowee.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=436224" width="1" height="1">Lake Wedowee HarrisAlabama Powerhttp://www.ilovelakewedowee.com/blogs/leisel_caldwell/archive/2009/01/24/4b923de2a93b4eadbc198b30e400722b.aspxSat, 24 Jan 2009 15:27:00 GMTae36f9ef-7c1d-4641-85ab-b8022578464b:413457Leisel Caldwell0<p><em>Note that this information is outdated.</em> </p><p>Come see the best and the brightest talent from our own community!
