Hi Mike,

Thank you greatly for all of the detailed information and video that you have provided. Along with the flooding issues locally goes the horrible tornados. Here is a link of the States and locations these tornados have touched down:

This was 4/27/11 by Town Center and Papoose Park Cherokee Village Arkansas

Here's a few youtube videos of the area in the last few days, very well done.

I have seen normal spring floods but in 2008 and this year they have been much larger. Why who knows I bet Al Gore has an answer but it will cost you to get it. lol.

Hi Forum,

While this flooding is fresh in our minds, does anyone out there have a "long view" on this topic. Has this kind of flooding been a part of life here for years and years? Or has it gotten worse? Is there a problem from errosoin on the banks that has made it worse? It's hard to imagine to me that Hardy originally built on a flood area. Anyone have the long view?
