Flooding in Burlington

Here are photos of the flooding in Burlington taken today, which is the day the river crested here in town. Thankfully, unlike Cedar Rapids, Burlington doesn't have a ton right on the river front.

This photo was taken of flooding that was a good 5-6 blocks up from the river front

Here are the kids...in the far background you can see the grain elevator on the river front that is now in the middle of the river!

Here is a closer look at the elevator

More flooding..the river's edge should be about 3 blocks back from where it is

Parts of a man made levee..

I will post more photos of other areas as I get them
