New York April Nyc Meet-up

Last week the New York Times had an article about Chicago that explained how Chicago can have too much water and too little water at the same time.

Extreme heat causes evaporation, so Lake Superior is at record low levels, but then when it rains it floods. Understand that Chicago's drinking water comes from Lake Superior, and the Chicago River caries away sewage.

The water level in Lake Superior is so low that at times the river either does not flow, or worse it reverses and M-T's (empties) into lake Superior.

Lake Michigan, eh?

Phil,

Yup.

Anyways they have a mess on their hands.

In the Hudson Valley it seems like it either rains a little or rains a lot, and almost every day, well mostly the light rain during the night.

Very cloud forest like although my house is only 80 feet above sea level. Well there are 500-600 foot "mountains" nearby.
