As heavy rain continues to fall in Austin, the Lower Colorado River Authority announced that Lakes Travis and Buchanan are full, meaning LCRA will move water downstream.

To do so, LCRA will partially open a floodgate at Tom Miller Dam around 4 p.m. on the afternoon of Jan. 2. The floodgate is expected to remain partially open for several days, according to a media release from LCRA.



According to LCRA, there are no additional flood operations planned.
