Eau Claire FLooding

Here in Eau Claire there was a flash flood warning out for Saturday. It was the 5th highest water level in Eau Claire. Many rivers around north western Wisconsin flooded and many homes had minor flood damage. Public Works Department went door to door to talk with the poeple by the river of precaution that can be taken. The river rose about 4.5 feet above flood stage and is now declining at a rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour.  Some streets were closed down on Sunday, including First avenue and lake street, and most trails by the river.
