Overnight storms have caused high levels of water in the Sylamore Creek where several objects can be seen being carried in the water. (Credit: Stone County Leader).
Will never forget renting a boat up river and having it not start as we approached the highway 9 bridge here in the 80’s. We v’d the boat and luckily all were safe but it was a wild ride. Someone towed us in.
This is not flooding. This is SOP river stuff. Parks, ballfields, boat houses, etc., are meant to flood. It is called city planning. Farmland tends to follow rivers due to the expansive nature of past floods enjoyed by the land. The floods deposited fertile sediment that translated to great crop growth. With the development of drain tile, farmers found a way to drain the low lying and swampy areas that had previously been unfarmable. Many communities also had the money to install dikes and levees, which halted flooding of fields, and led to more developable, taxable, land development. So, after decades of draining lowlands and building levees (along with the impervious concrete and blacktop developments), the water that once fell as rain in swamps, replenishing the aquifers, and spreading outwards from the riverbed, slowly migrating into the flow of water- we now have cropland who's drain tile and storm water runoff that dumps the water immediately into the rivers, and levees constraining the formerly meandering natural flow - with nowhere else for the water to go. This is the situation today - with higher river levels and lower cubic feet per second flow rates that we have.
whY AR they cleaning up??? you don't BEE LeaF in DeLuj' es??? Omen, Amen dude's... I'm not with yUR Christ Fig Leaf fidure or your JEsus character that saves...LiLiths' son

Weather Modification needs to be made illegal. Tennessee did and some other states did. And turn off the nexrads.
Weather modification my ass. We are under God's judgment
@@HEAVENBOUND267 look up weather Modification bill in your state that your governor or last governor signed into law. It's also in federal law.
@@carolynbrannon3707 I couldn't care less about that. God is still on the Throne and in control.
@@HEAVENBOUND267 then why say anything.
