Winds approached 80 mph off the shore of Lake Erie, creating waves that exceeded seven feet on a hazardous Saturday, Dec. 11, 2021. Here's the scene near Hamburg.

Wind caused damage to the north wall of the grain elevator, owned by ADM Milling Co., a division of commodities giant Archers Daniel Midland at 250 Ganson St., opened for business in 1897 and was last used in 1981. It sits next to a flour mill that was added later and is still in operation.
