High pressure will settle along the mid-Atlantic coast. Sunshine will negate some of the chill during the afternoon. However, chilly showers will riddle much of the Florida Peninsula. A storm is forecast to migrate from the central Rockies to the northern Plains. Rain will soak areas from part of the upper Mississippi Valley. While heavy storms erupt over the central Plains, severe thun - derstorms are likely over central and southern High Plains.

Crews working to repair a crippled spillway on the Lake Oroville dam will be racing the clock to have the spillway in good enough shape by next fall, accord- ing to the report prepared by an independent team of consultants and submitted to federal officials last week. The crews hope to pre- vent a repeat, or worse, of dramatic events that led to nearly 200,000 people be- ing evacuated last month. Repair contracts will have to be awarded by June and workers will have to have the spillway in solid enough shape by Nov. 1, the experts warned. "This is a very demand- ing schedule, as everyone recognizes. There seems to be no room anywhere to ex- pand any part of the sched- ule," the five-member ex- pert team said in the report for state and federal water and dam-safety officials. "A very significant risk would be incurred if the Gated Spillway is not operational by November 1." The report does not spec- ify what that means. How- ever, officials with the state Department of Water Re- sources, which operates Lake Oroville — the site of the nation's tallest dam and California's second-largest lake,fearahugerupturethat opened in the main spillway could expand to cripple the flood gates that send out controlled releases of water andkeepwaterfromspilling over uncontrollably. The independent consul- tants were selected by the state at the request of at the request of the Federal Energy Regulatory Com- mission. Department of Water Re- sources spokeswoman Mag- gie Macias did not immedi- ately return a call for com- ment Wednesday. On Feb. 12, authorities ordered the evacuation of 188,000 people in three counties downstream of the dam after surging releases of water tore away big chunks of the main spill- way and then the dam's sec- ond, emergency spillway. At the time, authorities feared deterioration of the emer- gency spillway could send a wall of water from the lake downhill through sur- rounding towns. The experts called it "ab- solutely critical" that the dam's state operators not use the faulty emergency spillway again. The state should start work now redesigning a new emergency spillway for the 50-year-old dam, the consultants said. The experts inspected the main spillway before delivering the recommen- dations to the state. Water was even seeping from seemingly undam- aged stretches of the main spillway, the experts said. Only 12 inches thick, the concrete spillway is heavily patched, at some places by clay stuffed into holes below the concrete.
