Levee Breach

The Army of Corps of Engineers reports a Missouri River levee south of Hamburg's finally given way. The water's not expected to hit town for the next couple of days, but the Des Moines Register reports almost 1000 people have left Fremont County, and officials don't think anyone's still in the area that's expected to get water. The breach's led the state to close a couple of roads: I-29, from the Iowa 2 interchange to the U.S. 136 interchange; and all of Iowa/Missouri 333.
