It floods every year in Wisconsin (although never as bad as Iowa) and these are the worst floods I've seen in my life. I live in the highest town in my county and there were roads under 2-3 feet of water.
Minor Hi-jack.
Heard on news (either CNN or CBS) that FEMA had surplussed 1000's of boxes (ie ready to if not already given away) that had been in warehouse for NO's flood. They thought they were not needed as they never were delivered!!!!
Network Investigative Unit found out and people waiting for years finally received what they were due!
