The high water dumped by Hurricane George is rushing through the Middle Suwannee, raising the river level at Branford by six feet in the past 48 hrs. The crest is forecasted for Tuesday, 10/6, by NWS. We look for this mess to clear out fairly quickly. Springs and Sinks affected by this sudden high water show mixed results: Telford Spring,Charles Spring - Gone. Peacock I - Get your gear. Clear at the basin. Orange Grove is unusually nice.....can see the bottom. Challenge is crystal. Mosquitoes are fierce. Cow Spring - Very Clear Royal Spring - Gone. Little River Spring - Tannic over the headpool, cracks blue at 10' near the window. Low flow. Water up to the sixth step. Entry road dry. Ginnie Spring/Devils Eye - Clear Madison Blue: No report. Called and got a machine. We suspect the Withlacoochie got wacked. The fast boat went out for a recon run this afternoon: Troy Spring - Gone....so is river visibility. Floating debris, large trees hazard navigation. Conditions as of Friday p.m. Updates to follow..........D. -- Send mail for the `techdiver' mailing list to `techdiver@aquanaut.com'.
