The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released 3 billion gallons of Hurricane Irma rainfall into Lake Okeechobee to alleviate flooding that the historic storm may have caused. This controlled release occurred at the St. Lucie lock which was built in 1941. Irma reached Florida on September 10, hitting the Florida Keys as a Category 4 storm. | |
