Wow thats pretty crazy. Send some of that rain down here in Texas we need it for our lakes and for fracking. Ha.

Today
Took the boat off the lake for the week

Bizarre. I'm on a large lake, 5mi x 10mi in northern michigan, but a river out and dam keeps the water at a foot or so change max winter to summer.

That lake must have a small outlet that can't handle the flow...

One of the reasons I like my AirDock. It automatically adjusts for changing water levels with no manual intervention required.

first time in 35 years we see this
heard today they add problem at the dam 20 miles away
level suppose to be ok this week
didnt take chance cause im not at the lake during week

[Booms]

Wow. I was in Quebec City and Montreal last week. It rained all day Thursday through Friday. That sucks! I too am on a lake that fluctuates I am always pushing the dock and lifts in and out.

Next time I am in Montreal can I get a pull?

On a side note got a speeding ticket between QC and Montreal. Was doing 122 in a 100 kph (that's doing 75 in a 65 mph) The officer was not happy with me. Especially when in the middle of his rant spoken in French I told him English please. He was pissed to say the least.

We have been getting a bunch of rain here also. Had to pull the panels off the dock like you did until we can get the dock raised next weekend.

Lotsa lakes in Canada do this , Shuswap lake in BC can rise and lower in excess of 5 meters approx 15 feet , it's crazy, what lake are you on ? Champlain ?
