In a July 9, 2019 photo, Detroit River and canal water pouring over and through seawalls is flooding streets, homes and basements on Detroit's east side. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says three months of abnormally wet weather have kept stream flows into the Great Lakes well above average. Thousands of sandbags are expected to be placed along streets and in yards near Detroit River canals to keep water from flooding homes and basements. (AP Photo/Corey Williams)
