My wife & I are looking to do some pleasure boating (pontoon) on Lake Pepin on Monday & Tuesday next week (7/18-19). Looks like the river water levels are supposed to come up quite a bit. Anyone know what kind of impact that could have our boating plans? We would also like to have the option of motoring up towards Red Wing or Wabasha.
The NOAA graphs show it currently at 7.4 feet, but is expected to rise to 14.1 by 7/18 (putting it into the “action” level which starts at 13′). Flow rate goes from 26 kcfs to 92.
Thanks,!
