For the last couple of years scientists have been spreading fear stories about the great lakes drying up. This past winter has refilled them so much they are now at normal levels.
Global warming ;)
Life just isn’t safe anymore.
So why don’t they build a pipeline and pump the water out west? Would probably be cheaper than desalination plants.
The family had property on Lake Huron, near the top of the thumb back in the 1940’s to early 1950’s....every couple of years the shore line would be out 40 feet for the whole summer season, the following year it would be back to normal...happened twice that I can remember.. I don’t believe todays experts.
Too many folks up there,
Have to move some to keep the whole area from sinking.
Pump it across the Mississippi?
Melting glaciers? /s
IIRC, We did have a collapse a few years back...caused by the waters of the Genesee infiltrating.
I'm a feet on the ground person. No tunnels. No planes.
I think they were/are talking about selling Great Lakes water. I think it came down to...who has the authority?? Not sure where it stands.
I audited the Safety program of one of those salt mines in 1998. While in the mine, under Lake Erie. Absolutely fascinating and scarier than down 2,500 feet and into a mountain five miles like the Console coal mines south of Pittsburgh.
No joke — the Grand Haven waterline appears to be higher — but it’s difficult to tell, the breakers have been huge the past few times I’ve been out there, swamping the approach to that little climb up to the pier.

Chicago has been selling Lake Michigan water for at least 20yrs.
It’s been a dry summer. They’re just catching up.
