Erie Canal Closed UPstate NY
I was reading Syracuse.com and found this reference to the closing of the
Erie Canal: "Erie Canal stretch closed due to high water The New York State Canal Corp. has closed the Erie Canal from Lock E-2 in Waterford to Lock E-22 in New London/Sylvan Beach because of high water from recent rains. Water is rising above some locks along the Mohawk River, the Canal Corp. said. Water levels are expected to crest Thursday morning, according to the National Weather Service." All kinds of places are washed out up there and it's STILL raining as I type this in my hometown, Moravia, NY, on Owasco Lake. |

Erie Canal Closed UPstate NY
More info from canal website: June 29, 2006 -- Mariners are advised that Lock E-2 to E-26 on the Erie Canal, Cayuga/Seneca Lock 1 and the entire Oswego and Champlain Canals are closed due to high water levels and debris, until further notice. Sometimes the canal can be closed 1-2 weeks until waters recede. Lee Haefele Ithaca, NY |
