Lake Delton

[Knot Waiting]

260+ acre lake vanished. Flood waters spilled over the banks and effectively drained the entire lake into the city. There are dozens of boats planted in the mud, homes floated downriver, and every resort around the empty lake has gotten all their reservations cancelled. Mayor said it may be the end of his town.

At jsonline there is an incredible video of one of the houses heading downstream along with a pontoon boat. http://www2.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=760060
Here is what the "lake" looks like now.

Re: Lake Delton

yes that is very devastating. we have an area here, and the No Ga areas, where some of our lakes are just drying up, due to lack of rain. we have 4 days of ran in the forecast, hope it happens.
