Weve been dealing with falling lake levels and a lack of sufficient rainfall for several weeks now. Farmers are still irrigating heavily and the bottom is falling out of the water table which also affects our lakes. The water table at my house fell 1½ feet over the past week!

Reports of dead or dying deer continue to pour into southern Michigan DNR offices.
So far, Berrien, Cass and St. Joseph counties have escaped the worst of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) while counties farther north and east have not.
As of last Friday, more than 1,700 dead deer have been reported throughout the Lower Peninsula the past few months.
Northern Indiana continues to be EHD free, according to district biologist Linda Byer, who said shes received no calls about EHD outbreaks in her region.
