It's not this dramatic everywhere, but some of the coves really took a hit!
On the other side of the dam it's a different picture. The increased and sustained flow from the spillway cleaned things up nicely.

Dry Dock
Pomme deTerre Lake in SW Missouri is not a big lake, even by Missouri standards. So when the Army Corps of Engineers announced that they would drop the water level by 6-12 feet below normal pool this fall/winter for dam maintenance, the ramifications were obvious to everyone. This is a flood-control lake and as such the water level can raise considerably. But it rarely drops by much, and never in the history of the lake has the water been this low.
