Lake levels at Alabama Power lakes remain steady after Saturday’s storms.

The system moved across north and central Alabama more quickly than forecast, dropping between 3/4 and 1 inch of rain on average across APC reservoir basins.

“APC lakes fared well in this event. Smith Lake is still slightly above winter level due to previous rain events, but we continue releasing at Smith Lake to return it to winter level. All reservoirs on the Coosa and Tallapoosa are in good shape,” said Alan Peeples, manager of Reservoir Management at Alabama Power.
