Don't send all that water downstream to St. Louis.
just think, only 4 more feet to go.
Been checking that site a couple times a day.
Click on the "u local photos" and you can really see whats going on,,,,,pretty depressing.
We had our first casualty this morning, a truck flipped over and off the levee he was working on and died around 5 this morning.
Oh ya the power station they mention out side Fort Calhoun is on its own island now, no way in or out with out a boat.
Good thing they got a tanker truck of fuel for the pumps that cool the fuel cells in there before the high water came.
that is a lot of water.. send some to cali.. .we need it here
Really feel sorry for the people that lose everything and the farmers that lose animals and crops, to live your whole life and in a few moments it's all gone...So sorry...

What a tragedy.
I wish his family well.
My family is coming in from Michigan today, they will have to take the I-80 loop around CB to get home.
