- Finally, we have some flow in the Guadalupe River above Canyon Lake. What an unbelievable sight....... #canyonlaketexas #guadaluperiver #comalcounty #Heelerdadadventures
Good news
That’s outstanding! I’m a 4th generation Texan and I started diving Canyon Lake in 1976 and have canoed both the upper and lower Guadalupe river many times. It’s so beautiful! I thank you for keeping us updated. Have a blessed day brother!
You, too, praying for those tropical waives to bring us some beneficial rain in a few weeks. No bad storms, been there done that.
Tell Abbott to stop letting companies buy water and not pay. As a conservative rancher out your way, even though I'm a generational land owner selling to leave , I'll pass on your thoughts, no disrespect but as a huge land owner, I'm always in courts and commissioners get togethers like cattleman's association
I agree 100% with you.
Tell Niagara water and skiing that they snuck in under the codename prime rib when they were building it to stop sucking the ground water out the billion gallons a day
Amazing that is so beautiful! Rain please keep coming! Thank you for getting all of these updates out!
We got .5 inch on the North Side up on the river yesterday. I bet over 3 inches on the Southside yesterday. Right in the middle of painting a boat. 😅. Kerrville is up to 4 inches in the last 2 days.
Wonderful!!
Wow!! Looks perfect!!
Hopefully canyon lake benefits greatly from this and more storms this hurricane season!! As well as lake Medina!
I hate to admit but I am hoping too.
That is our favorite place to go tubing in the summer. Good to see the water coming up!
Yes we've had a very wet winter & spring. (DFW)
Still have the cracked dry dirt once July hit, but wetter than prior recent years.
Great news and thank for the video.
Your welcome, hopefully we get some more rain to keep it flowing.
Awesome!
Thanks!
Lovely to see it flowing💜🤩
Yay. It has been low for a really long time. I was there when the lake was made.Blessings
Thanks for the good news. ✌️🇺🇸
Lived right down the road from Rebecca creek, now I’m in the Houston area. Used to spend afternoons after work relaxing with my dog right there. Found your videos a year or so ago and it destroyed me to see the river and lake so low. So relieved to see this video. Love your channel.
Thank you, I was talking with my wife and neighbor we are going to get it cleaned up around the bridge. Some tires and debris came down with the flow. Definitely good enough to hang out in the river like the old days. Crossing my fingers we get some more rain to keep it flowing.
Hello from San Marcos, good to hear! Haven't been to Canyon Lake in a while but last time I did I was shocked. Praying for more rain!
Definitely praying for more rain.
PRAISE GOD.
Praise the Lord!
We just flat out need rain central Texas. No doubt. I’ve been hunting el dorado for 7 years. We got a creek through it. It hasn’t had a massive flow the whole time I’ve been on it.
I seen your video about ut running dry down there and now its Good to see it wet down yonder!! That's the way the world works, has before we ever came along!! ebbs and flows!! 🙏God bless you and yours brother!!🙏
You got that right!
Thanks for reporting this!! I am praying for more rain!
Keep praying. It stopped flowing already. Crossing my fingers, we get that tropical weather next week.
That is great news 😎👍
It's not flowing, again. 😢
I don't live in the area, but that's a good sight to see. Years back, I enjoyed a lot of summers on that river..👍
It's one of my favorite spots. I miss running up river in the evenings. Hopefully, we get the rain we need from the tropics.
@@heelerdadadventures 🙏
I was gonna fish this river in seguin by the bridge gotta be some fish in it and good thing
Woo hoo! ❤
It's fascinating that while the lakes in central Texas are struggling with record low levels and little to no flow from the rivers that feed into them, just a couple of hundred miles away, lakes up here in north Texas - Grapevine, Lewisville, and Ray Roberts just to name a few - are dealing with record high levels and are having to release so much water, they are actually causing lowland flooding along the Trinity River. And in turn, that is causing some flooding problems down in southeast Texas, specifically, around Lake Livingston near Houston.
Yep, we are saying the same thing around here. We just can't catch a break with the rain. Rains everywhere but right here from San Antonio to Austin. Hopefully, that will change in several days. 🤞
Thank God! We went back to Canyon Lake Tuesday after a little over 2 years, and wow! It was so low, it was scary. I'm praying for rain in yalls area.
It stopped flowing since that video. I need to go check and see if the flow is making it back to that bridge, after last weeks rains. We definitely need some substantial tropical rains.
Praise God, it’s His call, and He does hear our prayers.
Great news need more YES through out the State 🙏
It's definitely a great sign, but, I doubt the flow will last long. The heavy rains in Kerrville area are the main culprit. The water table isn't high enough for significant spring flow. Now that frontal boundaries and the dry line have stopped migrating this far south and east, the rains have likely stopped and we will be relying on tropical storms for significant rain-making events until September.
Tropical Forecast activity is suppose to be highest ever recorded. I hate that for my coast neighbors as we went through Harvey. That is something I never want to do again or wish upon anybody. I need to reach out to some of my Mountain Home customers, I watched a ton of rain drop about 15 miles above the head waters on radar a week or so ago. I wonder if that much makes it down into the river. Definitely enough elevation drop there to be possible.
Bet ol'wolf is happy.
The size of that dam they had to tare down was huge.
Unfortunately it hasn’t rained much since. I wrote my state representative and senator asking them to stop high density development in next year’s session. If you like water it might be worth writing or calling. Thanks
Somebody better take the water consumption seriously. We don't get enough seasonal rains for this rapid growth. Only hail Mary is always a flood.
Great news.....need more rain! The Brazos River near Richmond has been flooded for 2-3 weeks due to the rain...
The entire state except our region I am seeing flood warnings in all the rivers. You guys stay safe up there.....
@@heelerdadadventures we are in SW Houston, the Brazos is flooding here at Sugar Land...
Fabulous 🙌 went to the lake April 9th and figured that would be it for the summer but maybe not 😌 we got a little rain yesterday and today in NB hopefully that helps
Drove over the bridge this morning. The flow stopped already.
Sad 😔
I'd love for someone to remind everyone San Antonio pipes from Edwards Aquifer County. Where are you at again? It's a big problem and only a few land owners go to Austin. A larger number can shake things up.
Live here at Canyon lake. Yes your correct. As far as I know and I worked in the Utility Industry here and all over Texas. The lake water stays around here, big area but I don't remember any pipes heading South on 281 past around FM 1863.
I think I heard that they're not releasing water downstream from the dam for a week or two. So that should help, too.
It did look like they are doing concrete work right at the Plant. I looked down there Friday driving behind the dam, I look closer and update.
they will figure a way to stop that
Awesome! How does the lake look now?
This minor inflow (peaked at 460 ft³/second) will net about 1100 acre-feet. At conservation pool of 909 ft above mean sea level, the lake covers 8300 acres. 1100/8300 feet is a little over 1.5 inches.
@@keithjurena9319 I guessed it was flowing about 400. I was close. I hope it keeps flowing until we get some more rain.
I was down at Cranesmill Road all the way to the water Saturday, it has really suffered with the heat. As Keith replied we need way more flow than this. We need more rain quick, not suppose to be this week, hopefully this high moves out.
@@heelerdadadventures I was there a few weeks ago, I can’t believe how low the lake has dropped. Even if I could get my boat out it’s almost unnavigable in this condition.
Where is this bridge?!?
@@mofer35 Texas, Comal County/ Rebecca Creek Rd.
Too bad it’s back down now…😢
@holly1391 I just drove down to the Mystic Shores ramp, I call it. I haven't checked in a while, we are definitely dropping fast. I am going to shoot a 2 month update from the first video of the river. I still can't believe people are commenting, thinking the lake should be full. 🫤
@@heelerdadadventures oh, I am in Cypress Cove, next to Mystic Shores! Boat Ramp 11 is in my neighborhood, it’s been closed for a really long time…maybe 1.5 years now…?
@@holly1391 Same....😁
Thanks to HAARP
Hardly anyone knows what that is. There's a problem of apathy.
I had to look it up. Very interesting, I'll have to do some more reading about that. Doesn't surprise me.
