Reporter Beth LeBlanc reports as homeowners along the lakes feeding into the swollen Cheboygan River started seeing water spilling into their cottages and lake houses on Wednesday. Homeowners along the inland lakes have watched their lakes, popular for summertime boating, slowly eat away at their shoreline property this week, eventually spilling water into and around their homes. Major flooding across the northern Lower Peninsula, caused in part by water on a massive chain of inland lakes, is backing up into yards and homes. It is also washing out roads and bridges as officials seek ways to increase the flow from those upstream waterways and through the troubled Cheboygan dam. More at the link in bio.
