Reservoir releases increased before Florence rains arrive.

Just so you know -  both reservoir releases have been stepped up and are at or just below their maximum flow in anticipation of the arrival of Florence on Monday and Tuesday.  The increased flow from the releases coupled with the recent rains have raised all rivers in the system above safe and comfortable wading levels.

Waders - -  Stay home and wait for Florence to go by.  As the runoff subsides, NYC will in all probability cut back on releases and perhaps wade fishermen will get safely on the rivers by next weekend.

Boaters - -  The river system is yours.
