County that are causing flooding issues for residents. The large pieces of ice are causing problems up and down the river, including the flooding of basements and yards.

Meanwhile, the ice shelves along Lake Michigan are smaller than usual after the recent cold weather. A lack of ice means trouble is on the way in the form of potential lake effect snow and additional beach erosion.
