Low water on western basin

[Ole fisherman]

I see the low water warnings being given from the strong west winds on Lake Erie. Been at least 55-60 years since I remember seeing mud rather than water in the western basin. As a young lad we had a cottage on the Portage river and recall seeing no water from long periods of strong westerly winds. Anyone living close by, please post some pics when the blowout takes place and see who recognizes the are when there is no water !! You will be surprised how no water changes the appearance of an area your familiar with.....hope everyone's boats are pulled!!

I looked this morning at the Port Clinton beach live cam and there is sure a lot of beach compared to normal..I suppose Ottawa river is dried up mud as well. I don't get up to the point much.
I'm sure it will be back to normal by April.
