pearlpro · Jan 1, 2016

The flood waters Are receding and the Interstates 44/55 back open but you may still want to call ahead for deliverys in Fenton, High Ridge, and areas around the Meramac river. But the good news is the water and rivers have crested and the recovery will be in full swing. IL Governor Bruce Rauner made an appearance today and declared all is well....Thanks for prayers and so glad that Rain stopped, One more day of rain and we would have had the Largest flood ever in the area....

Yea that's alright for now. Another inch or two of water and that bad boy will be floating down the river.

gee whiz....you can be as high as you want..you'll still wash away....
Six inches of water will reach the bottom of most passenger cars causing loss of control and possible stalling.
* A foot of water will float many vehicles.
* Two feet of rushing water can carry away most vehicles including sport utility vehicles (SUV’s) and pick-ups.
....thousands of pound per sq inch against the wheels....most of those deaths were avoidable....fools driving into water they say...
standing water is a little different....
