For many years, I lived within two blocks of Lake MIchigan. Love that lake. Doubt it’s going to flood out any great areas
Enjoy your waterfront property this summer :)
If the Great Lakes were to fully turn to ice, their volume would increase by about 9%. Before you get there though, you have summers where melt off will enter the Lakes and not evaporate due to lingering ice cover. Not a pretty picture if you realize what could happen. Ice generating machines.
Maybe my waterfront property will, in fact, be further inland this summer. I just looked up stats from the time I lived there, and those years hold the record for LOWEST water levels recorded.
