Great Lakes storms flood roads cut power across region
Thunderstorms flooded viaducts and expressways in the Chicago area with over 3,000 homes losing power. The system moved east toward Ohio and New York, triggering flood watches in western New York and advisories on Lake Erie. Heavy rains also affected parts of Alabama, South Carolina, and Florida, with rescue conditions reported near Lake Superior and widespread roadway washouts in northern Minnesota. The period included weather-related notices and obituaries bearing local community acknowledgments.
