Due to continued rainfall upstream of Possum Kingdom Lake, the Brazos River Authority will open one gate at Possum Kingdom Lake's Morris Sheppard Dam, Friday, May 31, 2024, at 4 p.m. for a release of about 9,300 cubic feet per second. The gate is expected to remain open for about 24 hours.
Be alert for rising water conditions in the Brazos River.
The release will take about 36 - 40 hours to reach Lake Granbury. Once the water arrives at Lake Granbury, the release at the DeCordova Bend Dam will safely pass the water through.
Recreation is strongly discouraged during gate operations. To view streamflow, reservoir levels and rainfall amounts, go to www.BrazosBasinNOW.org.
