REND LAKE APPROACHES RECORD LOW WATER LEVEL AS DRY CONDITIONS CONTINUE

Rend Lake is approaching its lowest recorded water level in more than 50 years as continued dry conditions affect Southern Illinois.

The lowest recorded level at Rend Lake was 402.95 feet in November 1974, when the lake was deliberately lowered to allow for bridge and causeway construction.

Adam Pearson’s annual quest: Helping St. Louisans survive the winter’s cold

For years, the City of St. Louis seemed caught off guard by winter. It wasn’t just the lack of urgency around snow plows (although that was certainly striking to anyone moving from a colder climate).
