Bad To Worse

Cedar Rapids is getting hit hard now and outflow from the Coralville Reservoir is expected to top 40,000 cfs- and water is expected to be five feet above the dam. Which is just mind blowing when you think about it. I really, really, really (given the lack of a job) wanted to figure out some way of getting down there this weekend and help sandbag, but I just don't think I can. They're prepping to close 1-80 and 1-380 and they want people to help sandbag by the UI Main Library and EPB which is INSANE!)

Updates from the U of I, here.
