Do we need to build an Arc?

It has been a historic event as they have been saying on the national news. In 1993 we had 19.5 feet, in 1923 the all time high of 20.5 and we are currently at 29.8 and we have not crested yet. They are shooting out estimates of 33-37 feet! Many businesses in downtown CR are wet up over the top door frame, the picture of the City Hall for CR is normally on an Island and the water is 20-30 feet below, not it is trying to go through the front door. Crest for us is supposed to happen tomorrow sometime maybe Sat. On top of that we get storm after storm. Levy breaches, people are being mandatory evacuated and in some cases have to get their entire lives in 1/2 and hour. There are approx 6000 households no including businesses that are totaled by the flood and that is just in CR.
There are a couple towns that are 100% evacuated- Palo, IA & Vinton IA just to name a couple. God bless all the folks that have been devastated. Dad's boat is hanging on to it's dock by a thread, but we just go word on the news that the first house boat at his marina has broken loose and is heading down the river. They have also lost a bridge loaded with rail cars earlier today and the only road north and south that is still open is I-380 and it has been open and closed several times today. We have a mandatory curfew 9PM to 5AM and they have instituted marshal law. The National Guard and local authorities are patrolling. So far we have been able to keep the water in our basement at bay by digging trenches around our house. Pray for no more rain.

Have a great day.
