Tempe town lake has been struck with a massive explosion amounts of excess water due to winter runoff coming from the northern part of the state. Early this month the lake was forced to close business to all water activities, including kayaking, fishing and paddle boarding. The damn on the east end of the lake controls the water level in the lake. This damn was overflowing for the better part of a week. Clean up crews worked on the area, clearing out sticks and debris brought in from the flooding. Two weeks after the flooding the lake is now back to normal levels.
