Lots of flooding in southern Illinois.

 Well, now our power is out, it's still pouring rain, flooding everywhere, what's next, locusts, famine, plague? Update: power is back on, rain has stopped. Yay!

However, here are some photos of a few places in Salem, IL that were extremely flooded.  Many people have lots of flood damage.  The spillway was unable to keep up and the water was 6" over the road.

One of my friends had her truck covered with water and her basement was full of water to the ceiling.  He entire yard around her home was nothing but a lake, a very sad and scary situation for all.
