BYE BYE ST LOUIS...This isnt even funny!!!! This is serious...Missouri river flood updated!

Hey OP .... jus wanna know seriously are like topless in your Avatar? or just clever postioning of hair? Or?

or never mind just wanna say . ( blush )


your mug is pretty by the way... sorry just a " guy"...:)

My cousin and her husband are moving from Garden City, MO to Gilbert, AZ. They must be "in tune" and blessed by god for getting out because I don't think they keep up on any of this info. I'm SO happy they are leaving that place.
The whole new madrid area is very dangerous right now, especially with the flooding.

Earthquakes are the least of their problems.

As Shanks said the corps of engineers are supreme fuckups so I find it hard to expect any positioning of the army and navy to be any less misguided given the forces at play.
Or to think these idiots who snaked their way into positions of power planned this on purpose when they are not very smart to begin with.
Stupidity is a big part of this.

...and they make the best brownies!!!!!

Didn't they have a flood in 1993 ?

As of June 8, 2011, Fort Peck reservoir is at 106% of capacity. The lake is so full that water is now flowing through the dam’s emergency spillway. Because the Army does not have the ability to halt the flows through the spillway without threatening the structural integrity of the dam, the dam and reservoir have lost the ability to curtail the Missouri. For all intents and purposes, the Missouri has defeated Fort Peck Dam.

The next bulwark against the Missouri is Garrison Dam, situated 70 miles north of Bismarck. Garrison is a colossus. The dam rises 210 feet above the riverbed and stretches a little over two miles long from valley wall to valley wall. Lake Sakakawea possesses an elevation of 1854 feet above sea level when at full capacity. Today, the reservoir level stands at 1853.38 feet.

Once in the spillway, the Missouri will have defeated the regulatory ability of the second of the Army’s large dams.

Pin this shit!

Yes, the Missouri flooded the St. Louis area in 1993.

along with the Mississippi River!

AHAHA..no..I have a sun-dress on..lol..yea..its ok..you guys are all ok :)

Yes it is dangerous! And we had an EQ just last week..first one IVe ever felt in my life..so no telling what all this water is going to do to the fault line.

Was it this bad ? I'm only 13 and not familiar with the area.

LOL>.its just kind of funny that the people that are in charge of keeping us safe..are just goons.

LOL>.you said it gf!

Yes..but it wasnt like..a flood, flood..I mean st louis wasnt waist high in water..like this could prove to be!

OMG..thanks for pointing this out! 1854 feet and its at 1853.38???????

Good lord..what happens next..

No..I dont think anything is as bad as this..they are calling it "epic biblical proportions"..in other words..something none of us have ever seen..

This map always scares me, considering I live in Northern Illinois.

Here is an interesting map. I wonder how they came up with this way back in Feb??

Just the flood plains were heavily flooded and the water went up the stairs of the arch. It was pretty devastating depending how close in proximity you were to the rivers.

The suburban areas were not that bad as pictured as it is on higher ground!

You guys have me all confused now. I thought it was the Mississippi that was going to flood St. Louis and spare Cairo, then move on down to Memphis which would also be affected.

The Missouri River is too far away from St. Louis. It would have to flood clear across the state!

Enlighten me, pleasee. And thank you.

The Missouri rivers runs across the state and dumps into the Mississppi on the eastern side.
The Missouri is having major flooding north of here and will eventually meet up with the Mississppi here in St. Louis.

Ok, now I'm confused.
At Fort Peck, ACE began releasing 55,000 gals per second yesterday and plan to increase that amt to 60,000 into spillways.
That's different from "so full it's flowing through the dams' emergency spillway".

I get the idea it WAS so full and spilling ACE had to aid the process further before spring runoff goes critical.

Sorry, I don't have the link, but it was in part 1 or 2 of Ralph Epperson's New World Order series. (That talk is available online.)

The doctor told everyone at the speech NOT to write anything down or tape him, and that if he caught anyone writing or taping he would stop and leave. One of his "revelations" was that they would "ruin music," which IMO means the introduction of rap.
