the entire aquifer of the great lakes if full to the brim. we talk surface runoff. what about the under surface run? back to those pesky artesians, just trouble i say.

i think the biggest time for evaporation is november/ december.

it's a very cool system

i predict that next july the water level of lake michigan/lake huron will be 18 inches higher than it was this last july setting a new all time record for modern times.
Maybe I missed it. Did your prediction come true @jon hansen ? :)

nope, doc, we did not see my prediction. thankfully.
the water is higher than last year however the consistent rain we had for 18 ish months has now changed.
my braggadocious prediction did start quit a thread though.
i am glad that the systems have changed, it makes for better motorcycling as well.

first time in 50 years that i'm not in sturge for the summer. even when i sailed on the ships i would spend my vacations north.
aeolus is in the barn. the endless varnish projects are ahead of usual.
i'm jones ing pretty bad.
keep thinking throwing the boat in for aug, sept, oct, BUT this damm virus keeps getting worse. those three months on the great lakes are some of the best sailing on earth. strong winds, warm water, fresh water, nice sight seeing, and after labor day you have it all to yourself mostly.
...... and aeolus is strong like bull ......
