Wouldn't there be some tidal forces in play on Lake Ontario?


==============================================

Yes but they are very small compared to the effects of wind and
barometric pressure. I spent a lot of time on Lake O as a kid and
have seen the water level rise over a foot in less than 30 minutes, as
a frontal system comes in from the west.


Yeah, when we moved up here and the Bay became a fishing venue for me, I
was really surprised at how small the tides were, compared to NE Florida.
