The water temperature at noon today was 47 degrees and there's no sign of any fish.
The cold rain that's due with this storm will keep the water cool, and the large volume of water passing through the culvert under Route 28 will be more then the herring can overtake. That will hold them back for a few days anyway.
We're checking the water temp several times a day and don't expect any activity until it's over 50 degrees and until the water velocity diminishes.
The counting project schedules will be out probably Tuesday April 17. We're waiting on a few stragglers to send in their availability which we need before we can complete the scheduling. But because this storm will delay the herring, there isn't any urgency.
