Another Great Flood Predicted for the Midwest U.S.
RECORD-LEVEL FLOODING predicted - Five burst levees along the Missouri River sent a deluge of water that submerged the tiny town of Big Lake on Tuesday, as thousands in the region fled their homes amid warnings that the flooding could approach the devastation of 1993. Big Lake is about 95 miles (153 kilometers) northwest of Kansas City. Missouri declared a state of emergency and mobilized National Guard troops to help. At least 19 Kansas counties declared local disaster emergencies. A Kansas man died when his vehicle overturned in a water-filled ditch near Wichita. Since the 1993 floods in the Mississippi and Missouri river basins, only two or three other flooding episodes have been comparable to what forecasters are predicting for the next several days.
