Default Fox Chain IL water level

Is there a website that shows water level year after year. I was thinking of going to Blarney Aug 10th but I hear water levels are low from this drought. Does anyone have an accurate number comparing last years Aug level?

You could always leave your boat at home and take the shuttle over to Blarneys.

Not the same, if this rain we are getting doesn't change things (doubt it will) i'm headed up to Winnebago.

Hard to tell what Grass Lake levels are unless I'm missing something. Normally I like to goto Petite Lake for the day and head over to Famous Freddies for dinner. Can't recall lake name though. Then finish at Blarney. From what I can tell from this website the water level is about a foot down maybe more. That would especially be a problem on grass lake. Last year this time (first week in August) I already barely carved a path getting on plane.
