Parts of Missouri going under. Hope everybody gets out safely as roads are closing. Quoting: Birkeland I know. : ( Mandatory evacuations. I can't believe the flooding! Quoting: Simple27 Is this just along the Mississippi river? My Aunt is just outside, south of Joplin. So she should be alright, unless it's flash floods as well. Quoting: deanoZXT Not sure Deano. I think it is primarily on and near the St Louis river moving to the Miss- river and one other river in Missouri that I heard, but surely there are more locations. Also this will make its way to Little Rock Ark. |

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated I don't know if this is funny or scary. I found it funny. Taken from my cities local Police Beat. Dec. 19: The explosion was loud enough to draw firefighters and a 911 call. It came from a makeshift cannon.
Officers drove to a hotel parking lot in the 6800 block of Tacoma Mall Boulevard. The 911 caller had reported a man in a hoodie rolling a metallic object behind a recycling bin and running away.
Firefighters were already on the scene when officers arrived. The metallic object was unmistakable: a small cannon, 3 feet long with wheels, facing a nearby apartment complex.
The ammunition appeared to be shredded newspaper, found on the side of the parking lot. Firefighters said they heard the explosion from 20 blocks away.

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated I know that the amount of rainfall that's been happening is uncommon, although not unheard of. And I feel sorry for all the people that are being affected by it. But, those rivers are NOTORIOUS for flooding. It's what they've done since before man even came here. People who choose to live in close proximity to them knew the risks before they moved there. When will mankind learn that he simply cannot defeat nature? To know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
A rock in bad hands killed Abel. A rock in good hands killed Goliath. It isn't about the rock.
A true warrior fights not because he hates the one in front of him, but because he loves those behind him.

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated That's right, not unheard of. They've had serious flooding before, but they are calling this historic. The news said water levels have never been this high before and the governor just said it's going to get worse over the next couple of days. I feel like there's nowhere safe in the US when it comes to Mother Nature. Most areas are at risk of one thing or the other. Where would you all consider the safest location to live in the US?
