Here’s the latest water level update from the community
The short term relief in the drawdown of our lake water levels is over.
As a result of lack of precipitation, as well as water demands for the Trent Canal System and minimum flows at Peterborough and further south, the Trent Severn Waterway (TSW) has removed several logs from the Mississagua Dam. The latest forecast from TSW predicts our lakes will drop more than 15 inches between Aug 27 and September 10. That will result in very low levels for early September comparable to those in 2007 which were the lowest in the last 25 years.
The latest water level forecast is available on the website of the Coalition for Equitable Water Flow (CEWF) at www.cewf.ca
