As someone who works in Massachusetts, I can safely say that none of the lakes or ponds are any higher that normal. The rivers were raging a week ago, but the bodies of water don't raise. They are fed and drain as they always do.
That’s not completely true- I too live & work in Mass and ponds here were flooding roadways and are just shrinking back to normal now. Lakes up to the Tippetty top of capacity. While I get that there are ways to control it - bodies of water do swell for a time. Granted this particular body of water is also susceptible to the ocean tide which fluctuates 2x a day anyways.
