By the looks of things around the harbour, the water level in Colpoy's Bay has gone down about a foot and a half over the past few days. A foot and a half across 23,000 square miles of Lake Huron is an awful lot of water gone in a very short time.
It's been a cool week with lots of precipitation, so we're not talking about a sudden evaporation event. The only way the water level can go down that much that fast is if it's deliberately released.
Which raises a question; why wasn't it released months ago before high water levels inflicted millions of dollars of damage on shoreline communities?
