Around AmeriKa: Iowa Inundated With Water

"Raging floodwaters sweep girl to her death, force evacuations in Iowa" by Associated Press | August 12, 2010

DES MOINES — A teenage girl died yesterday when raging floodwaters swept three cars off a road near Des Moines, and hundreds had to evacuate their homes as widespread flooding struck Iowa after three nights of rain.

In Ames, flooding contributed to a water main break that forced the city to shut off water to its roughly 55,000 residents and left the court at Iowa State University’s basketball arena under 4 feet of water.

No hoop?

Rivers and creeks rose after storms dumped 2 to 4 inches of rain on central and eastern Iowa overnight yesterday, with 6 inches in some spots, the National Weather Service said. A snowy winter and wet spring and summer set the stage for the flooding, but the recent storms were the big problem, weather service meteorologist Jim Lee said....

Yeah, but the MSM is too busy pushing the global-warming angle to remind you how frikkin' cold it was last winter.
