Default Lake Lanier drying up?

Since June 21, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has placed 105 new
temporary floating orange hazard markers on the lake, with more being
added every day. Officials expect the lake will fall another four or five
feet in the next three weeks.

"How many more (markers) we put out just depends on how low we go," said
Jonathan Davis, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' operations project
manager for Lake Lanier.



These hazard markers are showing up around Lake Ontario as well over the
last 6-8 weeks. Haven't seen anything like this in 10 years.
