What a truly amazing recovery for the Peshtigo River. It was so low that the rafting season looked almost hopeless in late May, and here we are in late June with outstanding whitewater a full 18″ higher.
It continued to rise today, and is very close to breaking the magical 800cfs +12″ barrier. It will peak and be falling this week, but likely will still be in good shape for the weekend. It will probably peak tonight or tomorrow.
The weather this week looks nice. There is an area of high pressure that will influence our weather, keeping the rian somewhere else, and us pleasant and in the mid-70s.
Friday through Sunday the back of the high pressure will bring warmer more humid air, and temps in the 80s. Sunday ( the 4th) there is a 40% chance of rain according to the NWS. The GFS has us in the 0.01-0.1″ band per 6 hours from Sunday noon on into Monday. That isn’t much rain. The week following the 4th looks very wet again, starting Monday.
We have a lot of events coming up this weekend and next weekend. I will try to sort them all out and get them listed tomorrow. I really filled up the weekend and am taking a little break today.
Have a good Monday and thank you for visiting!
