A little late with the flooding pictures but this is in Marianna, Arkansas. The hunting cabin/house.

So, is pretty severe flooding reasonably common there, for it to be built off the ground like that?

I have only seen water under there a couple of times and only 6-8 feet deep max. A majority of the time it is dry like in the picture though. It does sit not far from where the St Francis and Languil rivers meet. About 5 miles downstream is where it dumps into the MS River. Roughly a 35 foot rise though (between the pictures).

The whole thing is going to have to be gutted though.



EDIT: For another perspective, this picture is the same side of the house as the last picture above.....

That is insane. One advantage of the northeast is that extreme weather is more or less limited to a good hurricane hit every 30 years.

Last night's FE-4 has killed dozens in and around Joplin, Missouri. Over 2000 buildings have been destroyed. A regional hospital was rendered useless and emergency crews from the region are going house to house this morning searching for survivors with gas leaks and downed power lines everywhere. The governor has mobilized the Guard and FEMA arrived to set up a center.

The most ironic detail is Home Depot was leveled while Lowe's is fully functional and operating as an emergency work center for Fire and Police.

No tornado videos were posted, but plenty of after effects give perspective to the path the twister cut (six miles by a half mile) through the southwestern Missouri town of 50,000 residents.

A line of severe storms is just crossing over the Mississippi River into West Tennessee and North Mississippi

There is a cell right before that storm line that bears watching. It should pass somewhere between Humboldt and Dyer in Gibson County

Radar was showing it was right on top of me (Fulton, Ky) but did nothing but rain for a couple of minutes and thundered. Seems as though it weakened, and even split, as it crossed the river. Another cell behind it. Stay safe everyone.

Northern Oklahoma and eastern Kansas has a high risk for twisters this evening. A statistic that stood out last night was seven tenths of one percent of all tornadoes become EF-4's. The one in Joplin was 198 mph which is 2 mph from being the first EF-5 in the state's history. The 116 (and counting) deceased makes it ninth deadliest of all time. I'll post a link with related data, various vids, pics and accounts by survivors.

This system has me worried considering West TN will be in the epicenter tomorrow evening.
