Vermilion Prepares for Flood Threat From Lake Erie and Vermilion River
Vermilion residents and agencies brace for spring flooding as Lake Erie and the Vermilion River threaten lagoons and riverside areas. Some homeowners erect barriers using sandbags with help from the Army Corps of Engineers, while others evacuate or monitor water levels amid forecasts of northeast storms and ice jams. Local officials distribute sandbags and wall plans as the Corps conducts weekly visits and coordinates for possible federal aid.
