Current river temperature is still a balmy 60\u00b0.
Current river level 5 feet at Latham.
I see there are still a lot of boats, including some of mine still in the river.
They are posting a freeze warning for early tomorrow morning.
With temperatures getting down near 30\u00b0 It’s nothing to be alarmed about with boats or jet skis still in.
It’s only when we have an extended period of below freezing temperatures that damage could possibly occur.
As long as the river temperatures are still up, it shouldn’t get too bad.
If you’re concerned, you can always trim your motor down into the water. And if you have a jet ski still in, start it. And rap the throttle a few times to try and expel some extra water.
It was so nice to see so many families out last Weekend enjoying those record setting temperatures.
What a difference a week makes in the Midwest.
All public boat ramp docks, except for rockton, are still in.
For those diehard boaters, a jacket, some gloves, and maybe a hat, can make for an enjoyable fall boat ride.
There is some color along the river, but I believe the warm temperatures have put us a week away from peak foliage.
A slightly chilly boat ride Sure beats 6 months of cold weather and no boating.
We took our last jet ski ride up the pec. last weekend.
I never get tired of seeing a Heard of cows out grazing along the river bank.
The highway 75 bridge over the pec. has quite a large log jam.
It has been there for a few years, but i’m sure the next high water event will send that our way. Or make it even larger.
If you’ve been procrastinating, the sun will be out this weekend, and it’s probably a good time to get the boat out And put away.
I am grateful for my non procrastinating Customers that have been bringing their boats in for us to get them winterised and wrapped while they were still dry and the temperatures are very nice.
Who knows with all this hype about the super El nino, maybe we’ll have another month of above average temperatures.
I would like to thank everyone who enjoyed our river this summer. And did it in a safe manner.
We all made it back to the dock, safe and sound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
