Mississippi
River Flooding
Minor
Mississippi River Flooding In Missouri........
The Mississippi River
has risen above flood stage at numerous locations in
northeastern Missouri, however, forecasters are not expecting
major flooding.
According to the
National Weather Service river observation map, the Mississippi
River is for the most part 2 to 4 feet above the technical flood
stage from the Iowa border to St. Louis.
Some minor spring
flooding is normal because of rainfall and runoff from the
north. The river is expected to fall below flood stage within a
week or so, dependant upon the location........

We checked the gages on the Mississippi

all the gages show the water levels dropping as well as
forecasting the river levels to continue to drop.
The river level a Alton, IL is still

National Safe Boating Week
May 19 -25, 2018
Boating Safety
It Is Your
Responsibility To Operate Safely........
The U.S. Coast Guard
is reminding boaters about the importance of operating boats in
a safe manner. The leading contributing factor in recreational
boating accidents is operator inattention.
Mike Baron, the
recreational boating safety specialist for the U.S. Coast Guard
9th District says that boats are manufactured to be as safe as
possible and that most of the danger comes from the addition of
humans.
Baron adds that like
riding a bike, boaters must learn how to boat and be safe. A
day on the water can quickly become dangerous and deadly without
the proper knowledge, preparation and experience........

River Near Quincy, Illinois
Levee Districts
Have Made Advances Since The Flood Of 1993........
25 years ago, the
worst flood in local history blew through several levees along
the Mississippi River, inundating communities and rural areas.
These days, officials
from levee and drainage districts believe that they are more
prepared, however, they wish more could be done to protect
susceptible areas from the threat of future flooding.
Roger Sutter,
president of the Fabius River Levee and Drainage District in
Northeastern Missouri says that the river is the river, it will
flood again. Sutter says that the time will come that they will
be fighting another flood, so it is crucial to make improvements
needed to endure these flooding events........
