This will be of interest to all of you boaters living on the Great Lakes and time well spent for loopers. I have attached a link for a tv show which was recently done on the Great Lakes water levels. It speaks of water levels and particularly on Lakes Huron, Georgian Bay, Lake Michigan and Lake Superior as being at or below all time lows. Also shows some pictures of the effects. For boaters the real effect is to be vigilant in knowing where you are and that charts even if up to date may give you a false indication of actual water levels since records are being broken. For loopers this will not be a problem until exiting the Trent Severn waterway in Georgian Bay. This area can be tricky at the best of time because it is all rock, but now it is even more important to stay within the known channels and make sure you talk with locals, marinas etc. along the way this summer. For those on the coast this is like being at low tide all the time. May be of interest, it's about a half hour program.
