The Goderich Signal-Star, 1987-05-06, Page 2GODEItICII SIGNAL -STAR WEDNESDAY MAY 6 1987 PAGE 3 Pattern of below-average recipitation A winter -long pattern or below-average precipitation over the Great Lakes con- tinued in March to have favourable effects upon lake water levels, says Environment Canada in a monthly news release. "All of the lakes, except Superior, usually rise substantially in March, but a cornbina, tion of below-average precipitation and low runoff due to a light snow cover kept lake levels down", explained Ralph Moulton, Manager of the Great Lakes Water Level Communications Centre in Burlington. "As a result, Lake Superior's level drop- ped twice the amount of its usual March decline; Lakes Huron and St. Clair did not change significantly; and Lakes Erie and Ontario rose only about 2.5 centimetres in comparison to their usual rise of 15 cen- timetres in March." In February low supplies caused an wiseasonal decline in take ieveis at a time when three of the lakes usually begin their seasonal rise. In early April, levels on Lakes St. Clair and Erie were 6.4 centimetres and 11 cen- tirnetres below those recorded at the same time last year. Lake Ontario's level was 11. centimetres below that of early April, 1986. :On Lake Huron, the water level was 12 cen- timetres below that recorded at the same . - time last year. On Lake St. Clair, a possible increase 131 water levels was further prevented by a. mid-March ice jam in the St. Clair River which reduced the inflow to the lake. Lake Ontario benefitted frorn higher than normal outflows through its control structures all winter made possible by the exceptionally mild weather. , I 1-1 • Ili. GIFT IDEAS TO WITH LOVE!
