Title (Dublin Core)
Sanford Lake Flooded amidst COVID-19 Pandemic, 10,000 people evacuated.
Description (Dublin Core)
I’m having a hard time putting into words what I feel. My mom lives on Sanford lake in the house that belonged to my grandparents. After excessive rain, the three dams that regulate the Tittabawassee River broke one by one. The lake level rose, and flooded homes and roads. The city of Midland also flooded. My mom, brother, and uncle evacuated. Initially, my mom went to the designated shelter- Meridian Highschool. But my brother called her and said it was a bad idea because it was upriver from her home, probably would flood too, and there’s COVID-19, so being packed in a highs school with a bunch of people isn’t the safest place to be. She ended up going to my brother’s in Midland, which was not part of the flood zone. This morning her house is completely flooded.
