Lazy Lake starting to submerge underwater?

What better way to kick off the flood theme than to start off with a POI that has a 'Lake' in its name. It seems like the first spot to go underwater has been selected - the beloved 'Lazy Lake'

With each Fortnite update, players started to notice that certain areas around the POI were submerged underwater. Initially, many chalked it off as a 'Visual glitch' until it started happening consistently around many spots at Lazy.

Fortnite update v12.60 may flood the potentially doomed Lazy Lake even further. Now that water levels are starting to rise around the map, the whole flood theme for Fortnite season 3 might start to sound more pratical.

Midas' Doomsday event in Fortnite

Perhaps the most sought after question recently is, 'When is Doomsday event on Fortnite?'

Based on an educated guess, the Doomsday event should take place between the Fortnite update v12.60 or v13.00, just before the new season begins. It is still unclear how Epic Games plans to move the Fortnite storyline forward, meaning that we will just have to wait for it in anticipation.

The Phase 3 of the Doomsday device should be active on May 20th at 10 AM EST, according to a popular Fortnite leaker, iFireMonkey.
