[Magdalen] Flood

[Cantor03 at aol.com]

There have been freaky rains 6" - 13" in a large chunk of USA
States of Minnesota and Wisconsin that are now in flood stage.  
 
The Cannon River has flooded portions of Carleton College in
Northfield, MN.  My previous home area of Eau Claire is  nervously
watching the Chippewa River that is already flooding small areas
on riverbank.  
 
Fortunately, the Mississippi River and major tributary, the Minnesota
River flow through the Twin Cities Metro Area in a gorge which  renders
these cities flood free, even though the rivers are very high.
 
Hoping for the best for them.
