"In January 2013, Lake Michigan hit its lowest water mark ever. Just two years later, the big lake has seen what some are calling an unparalleled turnaround.
“We’re up almost two feet from there. Last fall, we had an unprecedented event where lake levels continued to rise through the fall. It has not rebounded this quickly I think in any recorded history that we have,” said Chris Schropp of the U.S Army Corps of Engineers."

and “unexpected”
For many years, I lived within two blocks of Lake MIchigan. Love that lake. Doubt it’s going to flood out any great areas.
“I can’t breath!!!!” Water———too———deep. Glug, glug, glug!
“unexpected” ?????
I see u were in the navy..from your post you must’ve been on the sub with a screen door!!!
So where’s the water coming from?
” . Us ignernt hillbillies were expecting the levels to come up.”
Gore will hit the booze hard tonight.
I would say the raise in ocean levels..OH WAIT the ice caps are melting..the polar bears are drowning..the penguins are dying...
Can’t be. It is settled science that cropland is disappering and lakes are drying up. Settled, doncha know.
“Last year we had the ice coverage that didn’t allow water to evaporate from the lake, just snow fall, ice coverage and rain through the seasons,” Schropp said.
HANDS UP!!!!
Must be linked to sea level rise due to global warming...
Oh, wait, it’s fresh water and the glaciers melted eons ago.
I’m tired of hysterical forecasts and projections. The hysterical we’re-all-gonna-die tone is one reason why I haven’t watched TV news since the OJ trial. I reached a saturation point. Since then I only read. It’s hard for me to trigger a hysteria response when my brain refused to read even the most bloviated liberal commentator in anything other than a sort of Daffy-Duckish tone. (They’d hate that if they knew Mel Blanc was the voice I used.)
Didn’t they have record ice on the lake?
“In January 2013, Lake Michigan hit its lowest water mark ever.”
Ever?
How long have they been tracking the water level?
GloBULL Warming Alarmists 2015: "Lake Michigan's dramatic rise in water level is due to runaway gloBULL warming..."
I have the globull warming/climate change answer! It’s so simple, the tremendous weight of the rising oceans is exerting so much pressure on the Earth that it is forcing ground water out of the Earth and up into the Great Lakes. I am applying for a Federal Grant to study this immediately!
