bigfish1965 Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Is it just me...or does it seem like it has rained every day since Labour Day? I cannot recall a wetter autumn that this one. Still got leaves in the yard and cannot clean them up cause everything is too wet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinch Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I couldn't agree more Rick. I haven't had a day off since Mid August when it hasn't been raining!! I'm pretty much surrounded by trees, and my 3 acres are covered with leaves!!! Oh well i guess I'll just have to get them in the Summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danc Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 That's strange. It's been bone dry in the Northwest of the province for several months now. I think I heard that Lake Superior is at an 80 year low, and all of its tribs have been reduced to a trickle. And there's concern about lack of well water this winter. Not good...

danc Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 From the Thunder Bay Source Local News Water shortages loom Tb News Source Web Posted: 11/17/2006 7:54:19 PM The Lakehead Region Conservation Authority is issuing a warning that water shortages could be on the way for some residents of the Thunder Bay area. Low rainfall this summer, along with low precipitation levels over the past few months has led to the city receiving only half the precipitation it normally does. Rural water users dependent on wells are especially at risk, and are asked to begin conservation efforts now. As well, the Water Response team is asking all users to lower their consumption by as much as 20 per cent to head off any further problems this spring. Another indication of just how serious the problem is, Lake Superior is at it's lowest level in over 80 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
