As Georgia's drought continues, an east Georgia lake is expected to hit a five-year low. Thurmond Lake in Augusta could reach that low within 10 days. That would trigger a Level 3 drought classification. Under that category, water from Lake Hartwell would be moved to Thurmond to keep up minimum necessary flows to communities downstream along the Savannah River.
