I'm waiting for more of you Conroe guys to get back online and start reporting how the lake looks. I heard it took quite a beating. How do the marinas look -- April Plaza, Inland, Lakeview? What about Papa's and Sam's? Any idea on when the lake will be ready for use again?

I'm in the Cypress area and we came out of this one pretty good. Let me know if anyone needs anything. I'm kinda new around here but willing to help.

April Plaza is closed until further notice. Lakeview took a pretty good beating, but the power is on over there now, so I guess we will see. Power is on a PAPPAS. Power stops just before IHOP, so we will have to see.

I have some pics I can post later of some of the marina damage.

I heard docks at April Plaza are pretty torn up. Makes me wonder what they will do because they wre already in bad shape. Maybe they have insurance and will come in and rebuild. I always liked putting in there because of location and setup but sounds like I might need to find a new place for whenever Conroe is ready.

Any word if the dam got damaged or if they have to lower the lake to inspect? I guess I need to drive up and take a look around but I don't want to be in the way either.
