It was down at this time last year too. We had some late winter and spring rains that really helped . It depends a lot on what this El Nino does.

I live about 300 yards from the lake and watch it daily. It has not been as low as it is right now in my life time (I am 39). With all the wind, sun and lake effect snow we are loosing water fast. I see ground where you used to be able to boat (with a 33ft boat). It is getting scarry now. Look for a real good deal on lake Macatawa waterfront soon as it may be usless to them. I sold the big boat and now I can honestly say it was a good choice now.
