LOW WATER LEVELS ON LAKE ERIE

The US Army Corps of Engineers are projecting lower water levels expected for 2013. Their report on all of the Great Lakes reads as follow:

The water level of Lake Superior is 1 inch below its level from one year ago, while Lake Michigan-Huron is 17 inches lower. Lakes St. Clair, Erie, and Ontario are 20, 24, and 16 inches, respectively, lower than their levels of a year ago. Over the next month, Lake Superior is forecasted to drop 3 inches from its current level while Lake Michigan-Huron is expected to fall 1 inch. The water levels of Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie are each expected to remain near their current levels in the next month, while Lake Ontario is predicted to remain, rise 1 inch from it current level.

We really need ran and snow up north and the lake to freeze to stop the winter water evaporation. Courtesy of OGF.
