Residents in Tuscola County are dealing with dangerous flooding after days of severe weather, prompting Governor Whitmer to declare a state of emergency. Floodwaters have damaged roads, bridges, and culverts, with at least one roadway now permanently closed until repairs are made. Across Michigan, more than 40 counties are seeing similar destruction from heavy rain, snowmelt, and storms. The emergency order allows state resources to move in quickly and gives local communities access to funding, to repair infrastructure and support ongoing rescue and recovery efforts.
