Flooding in Arkansas; looks like sand bags saved this house.
Not yet to the Mississipi on the Tennessee side.
Water rushing over the levee before the Mississippi River on the TN side.
Road under water
Before the MS River; bridge that crosses it; we are still approaching
4-5 miles out from the MS on the TN side

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYA!
Unbelieveable pictures this morning going from Dyersburg to Steele, MO. We had to cross the Mississippi River. The flooding is 7 miles wide. We started seeing fields flooded and water everywhere, around barns, silos, houses, buildings, and trees. Apparently this has not happened here since 1937. The levees on the TN side must not be as high or as apparrent. The flooding was much more severe on this side of the MS than the MO side. There was about 5 miles of flooding then after the river, another 2. It was hard to tell where the actual river should be; if not for the big bridge we crossed it would not be noticeable. I cried when I saw these farms underwater.
