Reply to High water along the C&O Canal

Just got this from C&O Canal Association:

Yesterday’s heavy rain is having an impact on the C&O Canal.

The park service reports that the Capital Crescent Trail is closed between Fletcher's Cove and the end of the trail at Water Street, because of a large sewage spill. The tunnel below Canal Road near Foxhall is also closed. Trail users and commuters can use the canal towpath downstream of Fletcher's Cove as an alternate route but should be prepared for wet and muddy conditions. The closures are expected to remain in place into the weekend. DC Water and Sewer Authority is working to resolve the issue.

Billy Goat Trail A was closed as of Wednesday, April 30 due to rising river levels. Call Great Falls Tavern Visitor Center for more information at 301-767-3714.

Park rangers remind visitors and cyclists to obey all closure signs and barricades as they are in place for their own safety while crews are working to resolve the situation.
You can check the C&O Canal National Historical Park home page for further alerts. The National Weather Service website offers information on the river flow at Little Falls and Point of Rocks.

You can always find a more complete list of activities along the canal by viewing the calendar on the C&O Canal Association website, www.candocanal.org.

Can you please give me some further information. I leave, or was planning to leave, from Georgetown visitors center tomorrow around lunch, it sounds like this will impact that plan. I am coming from out of town and don't know where anything is, my map is packed but I guess I could get it out. What do you suggest? Should I find another start and if so where. It's go time for me, any help is greatly appreciated.
