North Bay Report 3

Not all of the damages from the rainstorm two weeks ago were due to flooding. This makes the recovery effort even more complicated.

The sun came out yesterday and local residents enjoyed one of the most beautiful days of winter this year. It’s an important time to remember that many are still struggling to recover from the heavy rainfall and flooding two weeks ago.
