    Nearly 8″ in Henderson.

    Scott County Highway Department has closed County Road 6 (Union Trail) between Belle Plaine and Blakeley in Belle Plaine Township until further notice due to road flooding.

    I feel like crying knowing in a couple weeks all that water will be down here, But then reality sets in after I think about what’s happening on the Missouri.

    It sure didn’t take the sheriff’s department long to hit Lake Zumbro with the No Wake status. The puddle is up 1.3 feet already and the heavy rain run-off hasn’t even gotten there yet.

    Out on the point just downstream from the Silver Lake dam and the confluence of Cascade Creek the water is to the top of the cement stairway. Thats between 6-7 foot of vertical rise from the sand bar below….where kids play and make sand castles and have dry feet.

    Lake Zumbro is up 2.6 feet right now and it will take about a day for this water to influence the lake. Fun, Fun, Fun!

    Pool 5 has already shown a rise in the water and an increase of over 4000 cubic feet per second of flow just since 8AM yesterday. This won’t reflect what the Zumbro River will add since the gauges are at the dam. Then give a few days for the Minnesota to join forces with the Upper Mississippi, the Chippewa and the St. Croix.

    When does this cycle cease?
