So far the amount of snow in our area won't be much help to the Great Lakes or the Mississippi. We don't get much early like we used to, let's see what the next 3 months brings. With little to no ice the lakes are evaporating like crazy this winter so far.
I just read something on the Internet that said the Mississippi is back to its seasonal average due to rain in the mid west. Rain helps as much as snow. Cold is good as it freezes lakes and reduces evaporation. It will be June before we see how things turn out for the boating season. We are currently i" below the 1964 all time low for Lake Michigan. I'm going to do a good job of cleaning up my beach this spring. May never see this part of our lake again.
