The Big Sioux River entered the major flood stage over the weekend, breaking the previous record by 7 feet.
A chart from the National Weather Service shows the astounding leap in water level at the Big Sioux River in Sioux City, Iowa, as slow-moving storms triggered devastating floods over the weekend.Nearly 2,000 properties in Iowa have been impacted from the heavy rainfall and life-threatening floods, with first responders making 250 water rescues, according to Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds.
NWS meteorologist Dylan Dodson told Newsweek that the rainfall amounts were uncommon for the area, but that multiple other storm systems pose a threat for more rain in Iowa, arriving as soon as Monday night. Hopefully, Dodson added, the rain will fall north and east of the severely impacted regions.Another storm will deliver the chance of rain during the day Tuesday, but that rain might fall in central and southern Iowa, again avoiding those areas experiencing the worst of the floods.
