The title is pretty much the post. Mike's been a frequent commenter here. He's warned me about the danger of bears, but his state's been pounded with tornadoes and now flooding from rising rivers. Hope you're doing ok.

Steve, in my 71 years on earth I have never seen anything like this. I have yet to find a food vid or pictures that sgow the whole area inubdated with water, but there is a collection of pics on Tik-Tok that is pretty impressive to see. https://www.tiktok.com/discover/Iowa-flooding-pics
ReplyDeleteIn the past 5-6 weeks my rain gauge shows we have received over 25 inches of rain with more showers and thunderstorms today and tomorrow. I should gve taken some photos on my own, but since I require a walker to get around I seldom go anywhere except doctors.and grocert shopping where electric carts are available
ps, I had no serious problems, out in the middle of nowhere, except for an enormous anount of water in basement.
My fingers arew crippkles up with arthritis so typin error free is a serious problem for me. Please forgive my sloppiness.
ReplyDeleteNo apologies needed. Glad the waters are just an inconvenience for you and not more. Appreciate your getting back to me and the others here, letting us know you're ok. Take care.
DeleteLatest update from former hometown.... In Cherokee, the Little Sioux River swelled out of its banks and into homes and businesses. Mayor Craig Schmidt said that the town’s previous flood record was 28 feet; and their most recent flood crested at 35 feet.
DeleteThat is a lot of water for a smaller river to handle. FEMA declaration finally arrived for worried citizens.
Thanks for the update. I can't imagine what that would be like. There are so many ways people face great danger. It always seems far away and can't happen to me. Until it does. Stay safe.
