AHQ Report

January 4

Lake Monticello morning surface water temperatures are surprisingly warm in the mid-50s or even higher depending on where on the lake you are, and water levels generally fluctuate daily. Even after recent rains the lake is fairly clear.

Lake Jocassee is at 97.9% of full pool and morning surface water temperatures are in the mid- to upper 50s. 

January 4

Lake Greenwood water levels are down to 435.14 (full pool is 440.0) and up the lake is muddy while the lower lake is clear.  Morning surface water temperatures are around 50-52 degrees. 

January 4

Lake Murray water levels are slightly down to 354.70 (full pool is 360.00) and the upper lake is still dirty after recent rains. Morning surface water temperatures are in the lower 50s.

Santee Cooper water levels are at 75.36 in Lake Marion (full pool is 76.8) and 74.08 in Lake Moultrie (full pool is 75.5). Morning surface water temperatures have dropped to around 49 or 50 degrees and they are pulling so much water through the lake that it is clearing surprisingly fast. 

January 4

Lake Hartwell water levels are at 653.19 (full pool is 660.00) and there is some stained water in the backs. Morning surface water temperatures are down to the low 50s.

Lake Wateree is at 101.0% of full pool and the water is muddy and filled with trash. Morning surface water temperatures are in the low 50s.

December 29

Lake Keowee is at 97.7% of full pool and, while water clarity remains good on the main lake, heavy rains over the past few days have resulted in the backs of major creeks becoming stained to muddy. Morning surface water temperatures are in the mid- to upper 50s over most of the lake but remain in the low 60s near the nuclear facility.    

December 21

Lake Murray water levels are back down to 354.34 after cresting above 354.7 (full pool is 360.00) and there are distinct mud lines up the lake. Morning surface water temperatures at the dam are down to about 57 degrees but much cooler up the river and in the creeks.  

December 21

Santee Cooper water levels are at 74.36 in Lake Marion (full pool is 76.8) and 73.88 in Lake Moultrie (full pool is 75.5). Morning surface water temperatures have dropped to around 50 degrees and the lake is still clear. 

December 21

December 21

Morning surface water temperatures around Edisto Island have dropped into the low 50s in the big water, while back in the creeks after some of these cold nights surface temperatures are in the upper 40s. The South Edisto is not muddy but the water is brown and tannic with a tremendous amount of freshwater coming down the rivers, and it should stay that way for some time.  

December 21

Morning surface water temperatures in the rivers around Hilton Head are about 56, and with the crazy winds and storm surge the water is muddy. 

December 21
