Yah, my friend with the cottage north of Holland MI says it isn't that the lake
is higher than it ever has been, this is just another incidence of it being
high. He used to have a few hundred feet of sand between his cottage and

Joe,
As I understand it, not really. The water levels were really low in
2013 and there was a lot of discussion about how to restrict the flows.
There was discussion of placing restrictive boulders in the St. Clair
river to try to control the outflow from Lakes Superior/Michigan/Huron.
This is maybe a really dumb question – is there a way to drain them?
Does anything control the amount of water that heads out to sea down the St.
Lawrence Seaway, Erie Canal, and so on?

We have record high water levels on Western Lake
The high water levels in the Great Lakes are being caused by intense low
temperatures which freeze the surface and stop evaporation. It is the same
function as pool covers here in Florida. Interestingly, evaporation on the
lakes is highest when the humidity is low. So if you folks get
