The roar at Stevenson Dam after all the rain, 3/14/2010

While traveling from the New Haven area on Sunday I took this short video of the Stevenson Dam on Route 34. Notice the incredible gush of water that is being let out of Lake Zoar at the side of the dam > you can see it in the lower right hand side of the frame . That is a lot of water. Peak was not expected until 1 p.m. the following day, according to a Danbury News Times article. This was video shot with a G3 iphone using the Qik Video app. The G3 cannot shoot video out of the box. This is a a low rez fix - but low rez but better than no rez.

I really wanted to get down to the dam last weekend but never made it. Last time we passed by there after a big rain storm it was awesome.

Juls -- You could have really gotten great video and pics and zoomed in on all that spray too!!! Hey with the weather crazier than ever, I am sure there will be another opportunity!
