Subject: Strong winds dropping water level?


Hi,
It is conceivable but can depend on many variables. Did you have a
fountain
or other water feature running at the time? These can contribute greatly
to
water loss in windy conditions. Did anything blow onto any water feature
diverting water such as a leaf? How strong is quite strong in the UK? Has
it
ever had a loss like this before or since?
HTH -_- how
no NEWS is good


Yes, I had the waterfall and fountain running - it was the first time the
fountain had been run.... The winds gusted upto 45MPH which is quite strong
in my book! I didn't see anything diverting the water this morning. The pond
is only 3 weeks old and I've never seen anything like this..
