Mississippi River Flooding Update

Share

Following the heavy rain received this past week there is now ongoing flooding or projected flooding in the forecast for several area rivers as well as the Mississippi River. 

While we are currently not looking at a high threat for major flooding, there is still a good amount of uncertainty in forecast rainfall over the next week to 2 weeks as we are anticipating staying in an active weather pattern. As confidence is not high yet in how much rain will fall in the coming weeks, we do anticipate some changes in the forecasts.

Also, please be aware there is still snow in the Mississippi River basin and late rains have re-wetted the ground so the entire area remains susceptible to additional flooding as we move further into the Spring months.
