EDENVILLE, Mich.—Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer on Tuesday declared a state of emergency for Midland County after two dams collapsed due to heavy rain in the past few days.
About 10,000 people in central Michigan have been forced to evacuate. Families living along the Tittabawassee River and connected lakes in Midland County were ordered to leave home, for the second time in 24 hours.
