• 'It's almost paranormal': Volo Museum's Titanic exhibit floods on exact anniversary of ship's 1912 sinking (lakemchenryscanner.com) — Volo Museum’s Titanic exhibit in Volo took on water during Tuesday’s severe storms, eerily on the exact anniversary of the ship’s 1912 sinking. Staff quickly worked to protect Titanic-era artifacts and high-value vehicles, and inspections have yet to reveal how the water entered. The family-owned museum, open daily, continues welcoming visitors while assessing damage.
