you've got three U S and Canadian Coast Guard cutters in the ST Clair River right now trying to move the ice out and get the water running. We started noticing that the water was rising yesterday while about one o'clock in the afternoon way took action. Immediately started making phone calls to our partners at the state and federal level. And by just short of three o'clock in the afternoon, way had federal assets. Federal Coast Guard icebreakers from both the Canadian side in the U. S. Side racing to get here toe start breaking ice for us. They managed to break a nice plug in alga knack last night, and that managed to have the water received there. In that water just came up the river, and it's caused much of the flooding you see behind us. This is Point drive, and it's a deluged, icy mess. These homes don't have basements, they have crawl spaces, and if the water gets much higher, it's going to be in people's living rooms. West, Miller says. The next 24 hours or critical, forgetting the river, moving and draining this water out of here. But what happens next week when we are in for frigid temperatures, which last for days, he says. It depends on whether they can flush all this out now and whether the new open flowing water dams up again. We're just gonna have toe. Take a look at it. We'll be able to make those requests, should it be required. We have the full support of the State Emergency Management Division and we have the full support of the Army Corps of Engineers in the U. S. Coast Guard.
