 Well one reason heavy rains do not effect the lake in sumer is leaf mass on trees that absorb water and the dry soil created by higher temperatures and less rainfall in summer. In the winter trees have few to no leaves to help absorb water and ground is more saturated or moist due to shorter days and more rainfall in our winter. These conditions cause more run off thus creating longer flood conditions.

 Geese didnt think my thoughts would create such name calling and pointing out my ignorance!! I hope to never feel the need to point out others ignorance on this site or any site for that matter.  Have we lost the art of dissagreement and conversation?  Why do some feel threatened when someone does not hold our same belives?
