Historic bridge and town reappear in Pennsylvania lake as drought lowers water levels

A historic bridge and town in Pennsylvania have reemerged due to severe drought conditions. The Great Crossings Bridge, built in 1818, is usually submerged in Youghiogheny River Lake but is now visible as water levels drop significantly. Visitors are flocking to see the bridge and remnants of the town of Somerfield, which were flooded when the lake was created in the 1940s. The bridge becomes visible when the lake level drops to 1,392 feet. While the drought has affected local businesses, it has also attracted many people eager to witness this rare sight. Rain is expected in the coming days, which may raise water levels again.
