Freebird Posted March 20, 2008 Share #1 Posted March 20, 2008 This is just a note to say that I hope all our members in and around Missouri are doing OK. With the severe flooding going on there, I hope you are all on high ground. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snarley Bill Posted March 20, 2008 Share #2 Posted March 20, 2008 thanks don, i live about a mile from the missouri river. no flooding in our area yet. but i think we will have a record flood again before to long. if it gets to me an allanh the whole country will have to flood. i'm several hundred feet above the river. the meramac river and small creeks are causing all the problems just south of us now. when this missouri gets ready to do it's thing it will be real close to home. we went through the flood of 93 big time. getting to old to volunteer to sandbag any more. my dad had a mobile home and my wife and i had to move it out twice in one month by ourselves back in the seventies. i'll probably go down by the river today,so i will keep you all posted on the missouri in our area.

BOO Posted March 21, 2008 Share #3 Posted March 21, 2008 Yeah you guys be careful over there. Looks dangerous. We are having snow again tonight, the weather guys says 6 to 10" in this area. Watch out Don here it comes. I saw on TV tonight that Madison, WI has had 92 inches snow this year and a average year they get about 45 inches.

Guest Calibretto Posted March 21, 2008 Share #4 Posted March 21, 2008 Home town is Columbia MO, usually floods on both sides leading to KC and St. Louis Luckily the folks haven't called me yet about their homes floating away. We don't need a repeat of 1993 up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snarley Bill Posted March 21, 2008 Share #8 Posted March 21, 2008 went down by the missouri river near my house today and there is no farm land under water. the road i was on had about twelve feet or more of water over it in 93. they raised the road about 15 feet last year. highway 40 over the missouri river had about 20 feet of water over it by the missouri river bridge and looked like a giant boat ramp in 93. thats when we had the big levy break in st. louis county.
