After heavy rainfall across the Tennessee River Valley, nearly 1.2 million gallons of water rush over Kentucky Dam's spillways and through generating turbines every second. Kentucky Dam is the last dam before the river empties into the Ohio River. Over the past few days, rainfall totals ranged from 2-4 inches, with the high spot near Lexington, TN. Currently, 8 of 9 dams are in spill operations. Lake levels will rise at tributary dams as we continue to store water.
