From what I'm reading is that this is the worst yet ever recorded in the Mississippi Valley (or should I say flood plain). We seldom get more then an inconvenience in my area though one local city does have a yearly problems when the Mohawk River (Erie Canal) gets too high. There were some isolated areas when we went North last weekend to pick up our new pup that we had to detour around. A lot of snow melt and rain that bypassed us has caused that problem. Our weather has been one nice day(70s) then 3-4 rainy/gloomy/cool (55-60) ones to follow.

I hope that between the tornadoes and flooding in the South that any of our members and their families are safe
