If you'd like a good scare . . .

. . . read this post on the chances of massive flooding of the Mississippi.

When I saw the reference to "spring flooding" I had to recheck the dates, because I assumed spring flooding was long over this year.  Apparently not so for parts of Montana that feed into the Missouri river.

The domino effect of bursting dams makes Hollywood apocalypse movies seem tame by comparison.  It would make Katrina seem like a mild summer storm.

Let's hope that this is hype.
