news.yahoo.comHigh winds pummeled Bay County’s shoreline, leading to flooding and property damage
BAY CITY, MI - The storm that recently swept over mid-Michigan caused some headaches, especially for those who live along the Saginaw Bay shoreline. The sustained, strong winds coming straight out of the northeast caused the bay to come ashore and both rivers to rise quickly,” Ryan Manz, Bay County Emergency Management Coordinator, said in a Friday, Sept. 24 email to The Bay City Times. Properties along the Huron Bay shoreline, along the Kawkawlin River near the bay and along the Saginaw River in Bay City saw the largest impacts from the storm, Manz said. However, Manz said that wind speeds are typically higher along the shore with a north or northeast wind coming down from the Saginaw Bay. Despite the heavy winds and rapidly rising waters during the storm, Bay County did not see any significant infrastructure damage.
