The floods have effected a lot of people ….my thoughts go out to everyone, and their loved ones involved.

I have saw where dams have started failing and whole communities getting flooded. 
Try and stay safe.

@DitchPanda's area has been greatly affected by this in Northwest Iowa.

Yeah. NW Iowa has gotten hammered. Where Im at isnt bad but the water levels are as high as its been in years.

God bless you guys. Stay safe. We are gonna get hit hard tonight. But not until after dark which makes it worse. My trees and those of my neighbors are huge. I’ll be pacing. 
Some of you guys are dealing with big devastation and loss. Seems to hit you with more regularity. Hope you get through it. 

My town and several in my area have been hit hard, lots of people that have no flood insurance because they aren't in a flood plain have suffered total losses. My family has been lucky as we all dodged the worst of it...my sister in law had some damage and water in her basement but that's it. I have several close friends who weren't so lucky. My entire town is without sewer or running water and a big portion of the town has been without electricity since Saturday morning. The important thing is I've heard of no serious injuries or deaths from the flood around here....that's what really matters.

@DitchPanda I hope it all works out and you and the situation gets better. 

Stay safe guys. The back end of my development can flood bad. Those houses weren’t even built with basements in them. I couldn’t fathom losing everything. 
 

 

Thank you all for the kind words....we are doing fine in my household but there are 10s of thousands of people who have a long road ahead of them.
