Jordan Lake. This is the Jordan Dam tailrace this morning. The Army Corps of Engineers opened the dam gates and are letting the Haw River head on down stream. About 3 miles down stream the Haw River comes together with the Deep River and they then together become the Cape Fear River. It appears that it will be at least the end of next week or longer before boat ramps, fishing areas, camping sites, those kind of places around the lake will be open. It takes a while to move that much water out of the lake and down to the ocean.
