Missouri River flooding

Here are a couple videos I borrowed off Facebook and YouTube showing water being released at Gavins Point dam (video by Dave Rodekohr) and  flooding from around Niobrara and upstream (video by Wilcox Flying Service).                             

                   

     

The Mighty Mo is showing it still has the power for massive devastation, even with all the dams along its length. When there is this much water it has to go somewhere and there is no stopping it. We've kind of forgotten that over the past 60 years.

  1. I am glad to see another library blogger who is following the Missouri River flooding. I am also glad that you have joined the new 23 things.
