Lake of the Woods Control Board to Hold Open House tonight

Water levels continue to rise on Lake of the Woods.

The lake level went up about three inches this past week and are expected to go up a similar amount in the next seven days.

Due to all the rain, the Control Board has increased outflow at the Norman Dam by about 50 cubic meters per second, with a second increase scheduled for tomorrow.

In the meantime, the Lake of the Woods Control Board will be holding its annual Open House in Kenora this evening for anyone who has questions or concerns about waters levels on the lake.

The Open House will run from 7:30 to 9:00 at the Best Western Lakeside Inn.
