Crazy how many underwater obstacles there are that we probably come within inches of with our high dollar toys and don't realize it. Those pics help put it in perspective.

i can just about see the boat from my lot lol. Not sure exactly what he was thinking as it is widely known that this river pretty much drains in these conditions. To the point of actually bridging land between the mouth. Its almost tide like . . . . we are currently at -27 from datum where we are normally +30 or so.
-how long does it takes for all of the water to get sucked out of the marina?,south winds?.does this ever happen in summer with a marina full of boats?

This was posted on a Port Report for Great Lakes Freighters. The Seiche is reporting to be creating +7' water level in Buffalo...And everyone is geared up to be running the big water's of KW!




St. Clair and Detroit Rivers - Chris Sutton

The CWB Marquis entered the Belle Isle Anchorage Thursday afternoon to wait out low water levels in Western Lake Erie. South westerly gales had caused the water level to drop over 50 inches through out the day Thursday. Also anchored off the Rouge River was the Algoma Equinox.

The anchorage above Port Huron was full Thursday night as vessel waited out the high winds and low water conditions. At anchor were the Joyce L. VanEnkevort, John B. Aird, Iryda, Solman Hermes, Algoma Enterprise, Great Republic, Frontenac, Barnacle and Algomarine.

Buffalo, N.Y. – Brian W.
The Karen Andrie was still at the Marathon Dock Thursday evening while the big storm blew through. The water was way up in Buffalo Harbor with waves crashing over Route 5 and flooding reported in the Erie Basin due to a seiche.

takes several hours and most of us can kind of sense it coming, the worst is in the fall when our prevailing winds are west/south west with steady stiff SW winds being the most draining. Last night we lost almost eighty inches in about seven or eight hours.
