Took the drone and dash cam up the Mississippi River a bit on Saturday to catch the flooding and foliage. Flooding is going down and foliage is about another week or two to peak. Drone flight was difficult with 30-40 MPH winds. Even the birds had a hard time landing on the 2nd half dash cam footage.
News reports don't really give much idea of the extent to which communities are adversely affected. Commiserations to all who suffered. Thanks for the share.
Although the mighty Mississippi is a big river that cuts vertically though most of the U.S., most folks live out of the way of it's flood plains on higher ground. There aren't too many people that get displaced when it floods. There are floodgates, locks and dams all throughout its many miles.
