The sun evaporates 2/10″ of Lanier’s water each day

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

According to an article in the AJC, the sun is responsible for about 2/10″ drop in lanier every day.  It’s been losing about an inch/day lately (0.84 the last few days), a trend which seems likely to continue for a while.  Yesterday, that 2/10″ amounted to over 193 million gallons.

The weather is cooling off a bit, which should help, but no major rain is anywhere in the forecast.
