DescriptionSt. Louis, United States - Flickr - NASA Goddard Photo and Video.jpg |
Autumn usually marks a relatively dry time of year for the region surrounding St. Louis, but the autumn of 2009 brought heavy rains and swollen rivers. The Associated Press reported that heavy rains in late October left thousands of acres of farmland under water, especially in the flat lands of southern and western Illinois, near the Illinois, Ohio, and Kaskaskia Rivers. In early November 2009, the National Weather Service recorded major flooding along the Illinois River.
