Less ambient light in Lake Michigan this year

With all the flooding this year, I'm not suprized!  With all the nutrients/fertilizers washed in, algae would have to explode.

It's the same as what is happening with Redgranite.  Year after year, more biomass enters the water, thus providing more nutrients, and therefore more algae to lower visability.

It would be fun to see what would happen if the silt/weeds would be cleaned up with a suction dredge.  Maybe the 70'+ viz would return.
