Based on current conditions, the water levels on Lake Michigan and Lake Huron in 2020 will start higher than they did in 2019, said Keith Kompoltowicz, chief of watershed hydrology at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Detroit District.

The current USACE Great Lakes water level forecastextends out to February 2020. Water levels could exceed the 1986 record depending on the winter, Kompoltowicz said.

"If we see a ton of snowfall followed with another wet spring, then levels would tend to rise quickly again to start 2020," he said.

Cycles of nature. In the early 60's I remember cottages around Holland and Grand Haven falling off the bluff/sand dunes onto the beach.
