For many years, I lived within two blocks of Lake MIchigan. Love that lake. Doubt it’s going to flood out any great areas.

So where’s the water coming from?

Can’t be. It is settled science that cropland is disappering and lakes are drying up. Settled, doncha know.

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.)

“In January 2013, Lake Michigan hit its lowest water mark ever.”

Ever?

How long have they been tracking the water level?

Due to Climate Disruption of course.

To: Paul46360; All

Thank you for referencing that article Paul46360. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

I’m a bit surprised by how the graph of post 1 is being interpreted. With respect to the -3 minimum shown on the graph between 2012 and 2013, wouldn’t there have to be at least a +3 or more recorded maximum before 2009 to justify the “long term average?”

What am I overlooking?

All sorts of geniuses will tell you this has something to do with climate change. Mybe they're right, but not for the typical reasons they like to spout.

Back in the late 70s and early 80s, rising Lake Michigan water levels caused all sorts of erosion along the western shore. We had record snowfalls and record cold those years, which led to little evaporation.

Leading up to that time, the St. Clair River had been dredged, causing a change in the flow of water. Also, some other rivers were dredged, affecting water flows either into our out of the great lakes. All along, the Army Corps claims no responsibility that the St. Clair dredging impacted the water level and no one can effectively calculate the impact of other dredgings.

So last winter it was beastly cold, with a lot of snow. Summer wasn't particularly warm and the darndest thing happened. The water level of Lake Michigan rose. Huh!

So sure it was climate change, but not the kind that the bed wetters would have you believe, where major floods occurred...or in the past, where you could walk halfway from Wisconsin to Michigan where there was once a lake. Nope....just normal stuff that's been going on for thousands of years.

So, yawn.....go back to reading other stuff, this is no big deal, we've seen this play before.

There are some things you can always rely on.

The scammers will figure out a way to screw taxpayers out of money when the water level goes down.

I think it’s the rising sea levels running backward up the St Lawrence River.

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.

Lowest water mark ever = meant nothing

Lake level rebounds = we're all gonna die

Leftists, what a hoot...

So glad the left firmly believes in recycling and re-use... very efficient!
