Snowing and Blowing on Manchaug Pond

Haven’t lost power here on Manchaug Pond but it is snowing and blowing with low/no visibility. Send your photos here or on Facebook and I’ll post them! Also, you have to love Manchaug Pond’s distinctive shape which is easily recognizable on the weather maps! Here’s the links to monitor the power outage maps: http://outage.nstar.com/outage/outagemap.aspx https://www1.nationalgridus.com/PowerOutageMap-NY-RES

White Water at the Dam!

Thank you!  This morning the town opened the low level gate even further to bring the water level down at a faster rate. With rain in December we saw the water level continuing to come up even with the gate kept open.  Today’s measures should get us back down to a level that gets docks out of the ice and gives a deeper level of control of invasive aquatic species – namely fanwort and asian clam. Did you hear the fishing augers on the lake yesterday!
