I went to Vandalia today to do septic tank investigation. The photos below give some clue. Crops are drowned and yellow. Soybeans remain unplanted. Major rivers are flooding and levees are over topping in some places. I could be mistaken but so far, even though the rainfall pattern is similar to 1993, the amounts do not seem quite as large and we do get a dry day once in a while. However, consider that at least in St. Louis, we are nearing a top 20 gauge reading. In some tributaries, gauge readings have exceeded 1993 records.
