Lakeside Marblehead Mid July Weather 2012


What’s the weather like here around Lake Erie?  The morning Toledo news predicted one hundred and ten degrees.  At five o’clock, the thermometer here near the bay read a hundred and one.  Just a few hours earlier, I talked with a friend in Florida who said the average temperature there was seventy seven.  No wonder temperatures are record breaking here in Ohio.  I headed to a local watering hole, and joined my husband.
 Muskrat Jack aka Jack Adams

At Cleat’s, a charter boat first mate named Jack Adams, known as “Muskrat Jack” sat down across the way.  He was glowing after spending a fruitless day on a charter boat fishing expedition with “Pooh Bear Charters.”   He said it was just too hot for the fish.  The catch was a poor one for Walleye Charters. In the morning at eighty eight degrees, he reports, the waves were choppy, but then diminished to zero.  They were in Canadian waters and the high was ninety six with a nice breeze.  Everyone at Cleats was inside escaping the heat while the huge waterside patio sat empty.
