Flood Waters At Blossom Dam
This is a video of the Blossom dam located in Elma New York. The Blossom dam is in the Buffalo Creek and is the first impassable barrier from where it ends at the Buffalo River, which then dumps into lake Erie in Buffalo NY. The Blossom dam is a historic site. The original natural dam stood half as tall as it does now. In the late 1800s it was built higher to keep more water behind it to run the feed mill which is the building to the right of the dam. The Blossom feed mill no longer is a feed mill of any type and is personally owned and used for storage. In the 1900s, the mill was switched from water power to steam and electric. As the area around it grew, known as the Ebenezer area, more businesses came about and mass feed production took over and small sized mills were no longer practical to compete in the large market. This video was taken September 23rd, 2021 after receiving heavy rainfall. This is the highest the Buffalo Creek had been this summer since spring. It will freeze over in the winter and when spring thaw comes, the ice will break free and jam up, causing ice jams and localized flooding. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful day!
