| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Deep low pressure moved across the Great Lakes region. As the system passed to the north, winds shifted from southeast to southwest and increased to storm force. The combination of the wind shift, rapid strengthening of the wind speed and the long fetch up the length of Lake Erie produced a seiche on the lake. Water levels rose over six feet in just a few hours. The Lake Erie water level crested at Buffalo at 8 feet. Flooding was reported along the lake shore from Sunset Bay in northern Chautauqua County to Angola and Buffalo���especially along Route 5. The Buffalo Coast Guard was forced to seek safe harbor for its fleet, including using the Black Rock Lock to shelter vessels. |
