"A wet spring, and heavy winter snows, also raised lake levels. So, what's ahead?

Researcher Olga Lyandres of the Alliance for the Great Lakes said that it's difficult to say, but fluctuations are a sign of a healthy ecosystem.

“The most recent models suggest that it could either rise or fall, compared to the long term average,” said Lyandres."

So if there is a "warm" winter and lake levels lower, global warming. If there's a cold winter..then we may have flooding problems.
Bet you ol' mother nature would love to bitch slap these idiots!

We’re drowning in trillions of gallons of clean, fresh water!

[Cheerio]

Must be caused by the rising sea levels with melting ice!! /s

[knarf]

there's a lower level somewhere else in the world that is usually higher.

Coincidence ?

That narrows it down.

Thank God there is no Climate-Lock!

Hold muh beer and watch me prognosticate the lake water level.

If you go water skiing on Lake Superior this summer, better wear a wet-suit.

Either way, it's global warming. Or George Bush. Or aliens.

LOL. Is that science?
You can be CERTAIN that it will either rise or fall compared to the long term average, regardless of model, regardless of climate or weather.
There is no model or physical explanation that suggests the water level would, or could, remain exactly constant from now on.

Well, if the level rises enough, maybe it will flood the entire state and solve the problem of Detroit citizens' water utilities being turned off.

I bet they’re right!

Depends on what you apply it to.

JP Morgan had a reply like that to the stock market when asked.

People still lose money in the stock market.

Of course, there's the old joke: "The broker made money, and the firm made money, and the client, well, two out of three ain't bad."

Put in in rail cars and ship it to California.
