Right now Lake Michigan water levels are at a record high, and the lake is eating some Chicago neighborhoods.

This is only expected to get worse as sea levels rise and the lakes can't drain as effectively into the Saint Lawrence Seaway.

I don't expect that will be an issue in Michigan until after sea level rise tops Niagra Falls

This is already an issue in Michigan as soil erosion around the lakeshore is causing major property damage.
