KS Floodings too

[crow_noir]

Here our river has been feet below average for quite some time (except when everyone else near us is flooding.) (Saginaw River... I think i rather it be a tad low though than how polluted it was.)

Wow... I had no idea how bad it was around the world... that other places are getting hit like this. (I mean i knew, but not of the individual stories this year.) I haven't seen anything in the online news and i haven't been watching much TV.

I'm sorry Momoffuzzies. I looked for a thread too, but i never seen it. I don't like posting new threads if there's already a topic covering the subject. (not to mention the past few days my computer was doing something screwy with marking everything as read.) Thank you for checking in. *hugs* Glad you are safe.

moff - I was looking to see if you checked in here. I'm glad you are okay and I pray you get some relief soon.

We are on the other side of the coin - drought. We are short over 13 inches of rain this year and we were already short last year. Our beautiful green country side is turning into brown crunchy dust. The farmers in the area are really struggling.

Apparently it's either too wet or too dry. Is there anywhere that is just right this summer?

Nope...I think not. Everyone around the world is copping it big time.

Thanks everyone. I feel better now. Quite frankly, I was scared. No way I could evacuate with no car. I wouldn't leave my cats by themselves and I freaked out a bit.

Please keep my Aunt and her daughter and her daughter's family in your thoughts and prayers. They live in Coffeyville, KS.

The water got to within 8 inches of their property. They are all ok but there has been a massive oil spill there from a refinery. The Verdes (sp) river has been contaminated. The EPA is on the way to check things out.

One of my cousins called my aunt and she said they were on the other side of town from the spill but could smell the stuff from outside their homes. It makes their eyes burn even from there. They are on reserve water.

Please pray for all the animals that will be drinking from that river too.

Not a good thing at all.

Oil spill - not good at all.

I can't even stand going to gas stations because it burns my lungs so horribly. I can't imagine being near an oil spill.
