Due to precipitation, fast snow melt and soil that was still frozen, the Minnesota River at Saint Peter was at flood stage last week. Some roads and bridges were closed, but property damage was minimal. The flood was less severe than the floods of 1997 and 2001.

Thank you for adding these to the public eye! My Water Resources class enjoyed checking out similar water levels pre-Spring Break.
As a fun tangent, here in Colorado Springs, extremely high winds and dryness resulted in an odd dusty sky. Beautiful sunset, though!
