Default Will Snow Help?

Ok, it's -30 and snowy, my ONLY escape is the upcoming Toronto boat show, where I will "enjoy?" 8 billion sq ft of 18 ft bow riders and deck boats, with a handful of 50
Ft yachts and maybe a couple of Performance boats.....maybe.

So, .....with the abnormal amount of snow we have been getting around the Northern Great Lakes, what do you think the water levels will be like in the Spring? Does anyone think this so called "plan 2014" will be good or bad?

I believe 2014 will be the best Boating season ever . My home backs on to the Grand River and never have I seen it frozen completely over . The deepest snow drifts in years . Water levels will be high , beer will be on sale , the sun will shine , pretty women will work on their "full" tans and gas will be reasonable .
Yupp that's what I believe .

I am no expert but my guess

Yes a Tiny bit

Lake Superior feeds the rest of the lakes. There needs to be a lot of snow melt and water run off up there

Last summers cooler temps helped stop evaporation (they were not that bad we still put the normal amount of hours on each boat)

More Ice Coverage definitely will help a little

Overall I doubt we have been keeping track long enough to even understand the cycles of the great lakes. Lets hope they stay full of beautiful water for us to enjoy!
