Lake St Clair water levels 2020

Flooded. We were in the area yesterday. 30 MPH wind out of northeast, waves at the Marblehead lighthouse were 5+. We did not go to CP since it is closed, however, everything around it was just as flooded as the pics I took last May of water in Famous Dave's.
 
Now we are ready for some serious water levels.... earlier this year the original rusty pipe was under the dock.

We were at our place on Georgian Bay over the holidays. While the prediction is now that the water levels may be 6 inches or so lower this winter on average than last, it didn't feel that way. But that is because the sand dunes and beach have eroded and washed out into the lake so the shoreline is much closer to our cottage. Waters edge maybe 20 feet closer year over year. Hopefully the start of a decline period. I think I have posted this graph before of long term water levels since way back to the early 1900s. Looks like an overall pretty flat line, but lots of cyclicality over the time. If it was a stock, it would be a volatility play, not a long-term hold:
