Houghton County in the UP is a disaster.

Friends in Greenland only got a few inches. You should be ok. The next round may bring 3”. 

My cabin is up on a knob with a ton of slope around it.......there are runoff cricks on both side down about 10' or so........I dont think rain will get it. It would take a hell of a flash flood to swell those cricks up to the cabin but 6" in an hour is a fuck ton of rain

There is a Creek on the back side of my property. I was told it looks like a raging river. The water is still a 100 yards from my place. I may have to head up.

Holy shit! Has anything like that ever happened there before?

I’ve only flooded once, but it was mainly caused by a beaver damn and my sump failed.

The pictures coming out of the area are crazy.

It must have been really moving to tear it up that bad. Crazy.
