Lake Lanier levels down to their lowest in about 6 years because of drought conditions

If you’ve been anywhere around Lake Lanier, you’ve no doubt seen something we haven’t seen in about six years - a rocky shoreline. The water level is down about seven feet because of the drought impacting Georgia right now.

    They jumped into the water drunk and couldn't swim. That's what happens to every person who drowns there.

    @@teresajones6769 They were drunk. Jumped into the water and got caught in the vines and tree limbs in the water. I've been there plenty of times and you will not want to jump into that water unless you're drunk. There's only a few places you can safely swim there. That lake is not made for swimming. Only boating.

    I mean it wasn't supposed to be a lake to begin with. It's just going back to its natural state. Not to mention the dark history about wussy happened to the black town that was there.
