Vacuums worked to suck up the water from Northerly Island, ahead of the three-day country music festival that is underway.

CBS 2’s Mai Martinez reports the organizers of the music fest don’t want Northerly Island to turn into a mud fest, so they’re taking extraordinary measures.

Crews were busy sweeping up water, dumping garbage cans of water at a time, as well as moping and vacuuming the stage area.

“We bought 100 wet vacs in an effort to outrace Mother Nature,” said Brian O’Connell, the creator of Chicago’s country LakeShake Festival.
