Significantly High Rainfall in the Lake Okeechobee tributaries for the past 5 years • Wet Season rainfall over the Upper Kissimmee
Basin was above average in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, & 2005. – These five wet seasons yielded an more than 41” of
extra rainfall– The return period for 2004 wet season was 50 years.
• The Lake Okeechobee watershed is about three times larger than the Lake– so excess rainfall over the watershed can result in a
three-fold increase in the Lake Okeechobee stage. – For example, an extra 5” in the watershed could
produce 15” of extra water in the Lake.
Wet Season: June-October
