The water level of Kawaguchi lake is rapidly decreasing for some reason. Local newspaper comments it’s due to the shortage of rain, but because the lake has no natural outlet, it is hard to explain this rapid decrease of water only by evaporation.
Kawaguchi lake is located beside Mt. Fuji. Some experts suggets the possibility of the eruption of Mt. Fuji and Hakone.
(cf, Potential eruption of Hakone would trigger the eruption of Mt. Fuji [URL])
About Kawaguchi lake From wikipedia..
Lake Kawaguchi (河口湖 Kawaguchi-ko?) is the one of the Fuji Five Lakes and located in Fujikawaguchiko, southern Yamanashi Prefecture near Mount Fuji, Japan. It is the second largest of the Fuji Five Lakes in terms of surface area, and is located at the lowest elevation. It is situated at an altitude of approximately 800 metres, which accounts for its relatively cool summers and frequently icy winters. It also has the longest shoreline of any of the Fuji Five Lakes.[1]
The lake is within the borders of the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park.[2]
The lake has no natural outlet, and flooding of settlements on its shores was a problem until the construction of a canal, completed in 1914, to connect it to a tributary of the Sagami River.
It is reported that the water level decreased by 6m from 3/1 to 3/4/2013. However, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism stopped updating the real time monitoring data for some reason.

Le niveau du lac Kawaguchi, à côté du Mt Fuji, diminue rapidement. Un journal local déclare que c’est à cause du manque de pluie mais il est difficile d’expliquer cette décrue rapide uniquement par évaporation et il n’a pas de déversoir naturel.
Le lac Kawaguchi est situé à côté du Mt. Fuji. Certains experts pressentent une éruption du Mt. Fuji et du Hakone.
(cf. La probable éruption du volcan Hakone pourrait déclencher celle du Mt. Fuji)
Le lac Kawaguchi vu par wikipedia :
Le lac Kawaguchi (河口湖 Kawaguchi-ko?) est l’un des 5 lacs du Mt Fuji et il est situé à Fujikawaguchiko, au Sud de la préfecture de Yamanashi, près du Mont Fuji, au Japon. Il est, en terme de surfaces, le second des cinq lacs du Mt Fuji et il est aussi le moins haut en altitude. Celle-ci est à environ 800 mètres, ce qui joue sur ses été relativement doux et ses fréquentes gelées l’hiver. Il a aussi la plus longue des lignes de rivages des cinq lacs du Mt Fuji.[1]
Le lac est à la frontière du Parc National de Fuji-Hakone-Izu.[2]
Ce lac n’a pas de déversoir naturel et l’inondation des habitations de ses rivages a été un problème jusqu’à la construction d’un canal, achevé en 1914, pour le relier en affluent au fleuve Sagami.
On rapporte que son niveau a baissé de 6 m entre le 1er et le 4 mars 2013. En outre, le ministère du Foncier, des Infrastructures, du Transport et du Tourisme a arrêté sans explication de mettre à jour les données de surveillance en temps réel.

hours after the 5.6 richter earthquake in the east coast Lake Anna fell 22″,
is it possible this is related to recent quakes in the Tokyo area?
I’ve got a feeling that. Mt. Fuji is going to erupt. That sharp a dorp in a few days plus the stopping of monitoring?
Bueller?
Dorp, ehheheh heh, »drop,sry
wasn’t there a 5.6 richter quake near tokyo recently?
if there has been a quake locally the ground rock may be fractured and draining.
of course a 5.6 EQ near Fuji could also be magma moving.
What is the Japan geological survey saying?
well if Fuji blows as a major tremor like those 2 in iceland, it could shut down airports in Japan, Korea, china for a month. If it blows as a real big one, well, it was nice to have been to tokyo before.
