 A St. Johns River Water Management District official said Lake Brooklyn in Keystone Heights dropped by a foot in May; however, the lake’s water level still remains above average.

Tim Miller, the district’s chief of the Bureau of Water Resource Information, attributed the decrease to the lack of rain and said rainfall throughout the district was heavy at the beginning and end of the month, with little rain in between.
