Residents of the Duluth/Superior Harbor and the North and South Shores of Lake Superior have watched their property being slowly eaten away by the rising lake levels and storm surges from Lake Superior. In October 2019, Lake Superior reached within 1” of the all-time recorded high-water levels. There is no trend in sight for the lake level to recede as it normally does in the fall of the year.
