$2 million out of pocket One aspect of Plan 2014 that greatly angered shoreline property owners is that none of the other interest groups were expected to suffer financially under the new regulations. But the property owners? They're out $2 million a year. That is the sum that the IJC predicted...

Interesting article popped up this morning, it presents both sides of the argument about the current lake level plan. I do sympathize with those living on the south shore of Lake Ontario, they will take a beating this winter. Now knowing the lake level will be kept elevated over winter unlike...

Thanks Scott, That is the correct graph, It's not the best graph - the Army Corp of Engineers has a better one that I will track down. Anyways to figure out what the current graph tells us, Red dotted line is the possible high Lake level we could expect and the blue dotted line is the low lake...

Came across another article, this one from the University of Michigan dated November 13, 2017. Looks like the Army Corps of Engineers have a forecast for the great lakes to be high for the first 6 months next year. City of Hamilton hope you are ready for some more damage next spring, if the...

The chance of any change will depend on the US board members persuading President Trump to pull the US out of the plan. If it were to happen, it is not clear if we would go back to the previous plan until both sides can hammer it out. Frank Sciremammano (U.S,) is currently the only voice on...

Good morning I used the data prior to last night's weather disturbance, which dropped the lake around us by 2-3 inches. Scott seems your are correct in that the lake level hasn't really changed over the last two weeks, it should have gone down not up slightly. The IJC forecasted the level...

Good morning The past weeks lack of rain has gone a long way to help get the lake down, the lake is almost where they had predicted it to be for this date. http://www.thesuburban.com/news/lake-st-louis-floods-again-as-lake-ontario-drains/article_c2581611-0b3d-5800-a797-da21cab470c0.html...

It's good to see the Waterfront Trail open yesterday and its good to read Rescue can now get under the bridge. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/flooded-waterfront-trail-opening-today-1.4255428 Just wondering if the City can approach the Feds for some financial relief on the damage done...

Friday's anticipated high waves and rough waters didn't happen. So we can use the data from Friday, it showed the lake to be at approx 75.47 M. A drop of approx 13 cm from the previous reading. The lake is still trending on the high side and higher then where the IJC expected the lake to be at...

Spending time on the beach and water this weekend. We noticed that the lake level has gone down further since the past weekend. Just maybe they will get the lake down to the level to where they want it by the Labour day weekend. Came across a few news articles today that are of some interest...

Took a couple pictures of the beach from the pier to get a better look of the erosion, just need to use a better camera then my phone's...................................

Went for a walk last night after dinner down to the shoreline and over to the pier. The erosion of the berm worsens, figure another 4 to 6 feet minimum has been taken behind us. You will see in the photos below the erosion is getting real bad towards the pier, the pathway is getting close to...

Took a walk out to the pier last night and down to the waters edge. Yesterdays wave action has taken more of the berm away. Best guestimate is about 6' lost so far since last weekend. As you can see with the gentle roll of the waves, the lake is not far from being level with the pier
