The village has declared a state of emergency due to accelerated erosion. The shoreline along Geneva Township Park lost 35 feet of land to Lake Erie last week. In the past 24 hours, it’s lost between six and eight feet more, said Geneva-on-the-Lake Village Administrator Jeremy Shaffer. “We’re cautioning people to look but stay away, at a safe distance,” Shaffer said. “But there’s also that imminent threat to public infrastructure, to critical infrastructure pieces in this.” Tue, 11 Feb 2020 22:00:54 GMT /news/environment-energy/2020-02-11/lake-erie-waters-erode-more-than-35-feet-of-geneva-on-the-lake-shoreline /news/environment-energy/2020-01-16/lake-erie-slow-to-freeze-over-bringing-potential-erosion Mild temperatures so far this winter could have a lasting impact on Lake Erie’s shoreline. Late ice formation on the lake can cause even more erosion, according to scientists. Despite a cold November, temperatures this winter have remained mostly mild. Lake Erie’s water temperatures are hovering in the mid-thirties — not cold enough to freeze.
