The south east has had a HUGE drought.....in VA we finally started getting some rain a month ago. A number of the local smaller lakes have had all the ramps close due to no water....we went over 90 days without a drop falling. From the reports I hear Atlanta GA region has had it much morse than we have so I'm sure that picture is typical of the region.

That is unbelievable. Where is all your water going?

Its global warming just listen to al gore its the reason why anything is different.

Its really because of no hurricanies in 2 yrs. Remember it was global warming that caused katrina etc. So it must be global warmings fault we have not had one in two years right ?

just ranting

it said they have water police in atlanta and if your lawn was green ,you were using to much waterand not abiding by some water restriction code or something with the drought...

f'n weather is outta whack...no hurricanes this year to speak of ,california is having a bbq ,drought in the southeast...think mother nature is pizzed

looks like a good time to remove all the illegally dumped tires from the lake.

wow let it rain let it rain

WOW that SUCKS , Our lake has been down a few feet but that pic is pretty sad .have you guys seen it that low before ???
hope it rains a bunch for ya

Most all the lakes in the south were built for water (drinking), or power companies use (or both). People still need electricity and drinking water but with NO rainfall there is nothing to fill the lakes back up. It can downpour several hundred miles from here and without us getting a drop the mountain rivers can add a foot or 2 to the lakes in just a couple days.

RR or Joker, I can't place the pic. Any help?

God, that sucks. I almost bought the 5 acres at the end of WaterMark. How are the docks over there if you know? Supposedly deep water.

I don't know the pic either but it is that low. Watermark is still OK from what I have seen.
