Midwest Flooding
The flooding in the mid-west and south is catastrophic and there have been more fatalities related to these floodwaters than there was from Hurricane Katrina. We watch in awe as the flooding continues and many more are placed in harms way. Thank heaven for advance warning because that allowed those in jeopardy early removal from threatened areas.
Nature is strange but this same scenario seems to occur in the same areas on a continuing basis. You would think that over the years, there might have been something done that would lessen the probability. What about spillways to let the water drain to areas where it's really needed! Didn't they build a trans Alaska pipeline to move oil to the mainland?
What about building a tremendous reservoir that can absorb millions of gallons of water that we can forward to California , or Nevada or somewhere that is in jeopardy of having no water reserves. Dah!!! I just don't get it!
