We took a trip to northwest Iowa this past weekend to help my brother and family move into a new home. And, as many of you may have noted, there has been some heavy rain in southern Minnesota, northern Iowa and Wisconsin over the last week. The farm got a total of 1 inch of rain from these systems - which is quite nice. But, even areas such as our that got less can have troubles because of the rain upriver! A quick look at the Cedar River in Waverly confirms that.
