Port Huron officials are breaking ice on the Black River this week to prevent spring flooding. Purdy Fisheries from Sarnia is using its vessel to clear ice from the river’s mouth to the I-94 Bridge. The Port Huron Fire Department warns drivers of frequent bridge openings on Military, Seventh, and 10th streets. Ice thickness will determine how long the process takes. Residents should avoid the river and remove valuables from flood-prone areas, including patio furniture, lawn equipment, and watercraft.
