Road Closure, you think, duh.

Captured this 2019, 05-06 (Monday AM) of the flooding Mississippi River. This is a small road off of Highway 79 near Winfield, MO. As you see it's getting close to the highway. At least the levees in Winfield, MO are holding. Hurray.

More Rain Today, oh dear. Last of the Flooding Shots. I'll post a something on happier note tomorrow.

Will try and do a little more commenting today. Also Thank You for your time.

Happy Mother's Day To All My Caedes Friends, Have a beautiful day, ♥ Skates

PS: Thanks Tick for letting me know I had the wrong month, no I am not a time traveller, lol

Unless you are a time traveler, I'm assuming this was taken 05-06 Skates. I hope you had a good place to park and turn around.
Great photo of the flood. We need a "photojournalism" category.
Life along the river can be tumultuous.
Have a good weekend and Happy Mother's Day.

This is an impressive and slightly frightening sight. Hope it doesn't increase any more. Good capture.

Happy Mother's Day to you.Pat.

Best wishes to all the people along the path. Deep waters - no good, deep waters and power lines - really no good!

Pat, although these circumstances around Winfield - the area where your sister-in-law lives - aren't happy, I like to wish you anyhow a Happy Mother's Day.
I agree with our Owd Fella Tick (OFT) that a new category 'Photojournalism' is desirable.
You very actual and good photograph would be an excellent addition of such a gallery, my friend.

That is a frightening image. I don't think there will be a problem exceeding the 35 mph speed limit here. Now turn around and find a safer route, Pat.
