Some of you might have heard of it on the national news.

The river crested today, only about 10 blocks from my house. Also, these pictures are mostly of the industrial part of downtown Cedar Rapids. Allot of my friends had to be evacuated, my friend Cody estimated that my friend Dean's house would be totally submerged it water, and my Friend Courtny's house with about 2 feet. I wanted to go out and take pictures last night, but there was a curfew and the police were kicking people out if they came downtown. Problem is, i think the flood will move to Coralville now, so this isn't over.
More Pictures, and videos:
