Look at the Bay on April Fool's Day - now imagine what the satellite image would show if we get a 25-year storm...or worse. There is an 80% chance of it happening over the course of the pending license for the Conowingo Dam. https://t.co/wGMfnQKhbA

As of 11:30 this morning, the water was coming through the Dam at 150,000 cubic feet per second (cfs). This means scouring sediment and nutrients into the upper Bay...again. They're expecting to open up to 8 gates today after having 12 open yesterday. https://t.co/Xk5FsvgHTz

First round to the State! https://t.co/04zxMwfhLm

[CleanChesapeakeCltn @CleanChesapeake]

Heavy rainfall throughout the summer has lead to an unusual amount of sediment, and the polluting nutrients that accompany it, to be scoured from behind the Dam. Since July 15th, we’ve had 25 days where the average cubic feet per second was over 100,000 https://t.co/mTjCRhJb7k

Here's hoping the fallout from Florence in our region is as light as officials are saying...even without the rain from that storm, beaches are being closed. https://t.co/HXJBJKRBrG
