R.I.P. Scout26
The other area where flooding is possible this spring is in the lower Mississippi River Valley, along tributaries of the river in Louisiana and Mississippi.The risk of flooding is a concern in those areas because of unusually high levels of soil moisture, coupled with high river levels.
FLASH!According to USA Today ( http://www.usatoday.com/weather/floods/story/2012-03-14/spring-flood-risk/53552372/1?csp=24&kjnd=3shjf20vlg1ipR3IEV%2BFAB9OfHYszjcrg6yOD%2BCD7NKxfG9SdcBaAxLuevOaUPY%2F-675c76bf-7e9c-4adc-b0e8-ea3a58566016_6l%2Bl6toCBnB0FAeJ0h81O%2BJIdBy0TL1jmOCZV%2Ff9JD3mI%2BSTytSWnsaK3GcFTnxa ), risk of flooding is associated with high river levels.Thanks, USA Today. If I hadn't read this article, I might never have known that.
