Ottumwa and down stream who has crops or buildings under water? Red Rock has kept the water over the river road west of Kilbourne for about 3 weeks. Over the front axle of a 1066. Eddyville sewer plant on the river flat has been under water for some time. Carp are eating rather well on the raw sewage.
 
80% chance of rain for tonight (Fri), possibly heavy here in NW Iowa. Any water from approximately hwy 71 and east goes to the Des Moines or Raccoon rivers. The two meet at Des Moines. Jim
 
Neighbor I work for has 100 acres on Des Moines river bottom 5 miles SE of Ottumwa . Third year of renting farm, only one crop in three years.
