Superior - even
Huron & Michigan +9 inches

Steve, I'm a Michigan sailor:  I've heard that Lake Michigan levels are
actually supposed to be "up" 9 inches this year.  I'd like to know whether
what I've heard is true, but don't know where to go to confirm such facts.
Old-timers tell me the high-levels we enjoyed five years ago were the
anomaly (???).  --Craig

Well I just went down and looked at the Evanston, IL boat
launch ramp over the weekend - the only one nearby my
house and the one for which I've ALREADY forked over
$300+ for my season pass.

How demorilizing: the water levels seem even lower this
year than last.  They are all prepared to dredge it out
and have the heavy equipment there and all, but right at
the moment it doesn't look good for getting on the water
any time soon.  Certainly not in April, I'm guessing.

Will the Great Lakes water levels keep dropping forever?
They are already close to two feet below average and a
foot below chart datum.

Anybody else on the Great Lakes having a problem with
this?
