Missouri River Flood Watch

Residents from Blair, Nebraska to Hamburg, Iowa are getting very nervous about the levels of the Missouri river which, at this writing, is at 30.38'; flood stage is 29'. An interactive version of the map below from the National Weather Service is here.

The Omaha World-Herald reported on a packed flood meeting in Glenwood, Iowa in Mills County. A levee was breached near Hamburg, Iowa, where evacuations have been ordered and residents have been sharply critical of the US Army Corps of Engineers. Rulo, Nebraska is threatened as are Blair and Browneville, Nebraska. Brownville is the site of a nuclear reactor.
