The water goes to the same place, just floods places that are not flooded. Using the acre-feet charts, we're adding 3000 acre-feet per hour. The 4000 cubic-feet per second (113 cubic-meters/second) is about 10% of the inflow...
Water level is going to breech the north edge of the dam any minute. Some IDIOT just built a business at the exact north end of the dam.
