Only 1 mm rain in past 24 hours. Partly cloudy with moderate winds now. Water is fairly calm and very clear. Some weeds growing up from the bottom and small fish swimming about. No signs of birds around....lots of tourists though.
It was raining and humid. There was a fisherman in a boat in the lake and close to the shore a school of small fish. There were several small groups of tourists. They asked questions and I told them about the Water Rangers website. I asked a couple to help me look at the dissolved oxygen scale to get a reading because they were quite interested in what I was doing.
Had about 14 MM rainfall in past 24 hours. Overcast and very calm this morning. Some small fish swimming in the water , birds singing in the trees and few seagulls further out over the lake. Rocks all had some green slime cover. Some tourists here from Toronto seemed interested in the water so talked with them about the testing we do and gave them a card to visit the Water Rangers site to learn more.
Today is a beautiful sunny and calm day. The water was running over the dam and towards the big bay (part of Lake Ontario) behind us. There was a cormorant and lots of May flies.
A neighbour to the Lake on the Mountain Park came by when we were taking water samples and was very interested in what we were doing. I gave her some information including the Water Rangers website. She told me the ice was off the lake March 15, 2018.
