Well we have been getting more than our fair share of rain here in the midwest. Here in my little town of Ottawa we have been inundated with water. luckily for me I live on high ground, but unfortunatly a lot of people don't. Thank God for levees or Ottawa would be totally under water right now. As it is there are stil several blocks that were flooded and many roads out in the country have been closed due to flooding. One of the towns downstream from us called Osawatamie has had to be evacuated, 2/3 of the city are under water and they say it is going to be one heck of a clean up once the waters recede. For my part I have had to pump water out of my crawl space due to the fact that a field drains onto my property, we are having a permanent sump pump installed later this week so that we don't have to deal with this again.
