Default Pond levels

It looks like you're finally getting some decent rain in TV. When we left in April most of the ponds were awfully low. Have the water levels in the ponds returned to normal?

Most of the ponds are now full to the normal pool. It looks really great now.

Most of the ponds in Ashland off Belvedere are still low. Check the one by Pimlico rec center on Belvedere and while at it the ponds in and around the Palmer Golf course..........still very low. While walking the board walk at Sumter Landing the night of 7/18, noticed the lake level at least 2 - 3 feet low on the pilings and pier.

The ponds at Lopez and Glenview appear to be at normal level.

Thanks for the info. I wonder if the ponds to the south still appear low because of their size or was there more rain to the north around Lopez and Glenview?

Ponds down south are pretty full too. We had 1.4 inches of rain on Saturday evening. Rain levels vary widely on any given day throughout the Villages. Things are greening up nicely. We are still on the water restrictions to one day a week, but, with the rain there is no need to irrigate regularly.
