Flooding here in Iowa

[47of74]

Yeah, just what we don't need right now.

Dangerous amounts of rain have fallen along Highway 20 and north and additional rain is still possible. Due to the already saturated grounds and significant amounts of rain, dangerous flooding is occurring. Areas to the north have seen anywhere from 2 to over 12 inches of rain. Areas along the Cedar and Turkey River are dealing with moderate flooding and river levels are expected to continue to rise above flood stage.

If you come across a road or area covered in water, TURN AROUND! Keep in mind most flooding deaths do occur in vehicles that are trying to drive through a flooded area..

2. I was there in '93.

We were supposed to survey a 15 mile highway corridor along 30 and 10 miles went underwater. We gave up and went back East when the local bar closed because their kegs were in the cellar...

Stay dry and safe!

3. Fourteen inches of rain

around the Waseca,Mn area and that all flows into the Cedar and Des Moines rivers. Hang in there and stay dry.

9. Have not heard from the Kid that lives in St Pete yet.

Last year when they got hit with a big dump,the Hwy north of town was closed for a couple of days.

5. It's the dregs of Hurricane Paine

We only got a few sprinkles here in NM, but we did get them. Once the storm got east of the Rockies, it picked up more moisture.

The next one looks set to go out sea. I hope so.

Ugh.

Attention God. Please redirect the rain to places that actually need the rain.
