Flooding along the Mississippi in St. Paul

It is Friday and Fridays are for fun. The good news is that much of the land under water along the Mississippi River is parkland rather than homes and businesses. Shepard Road is closed at Eagle Street and Warner road through downtown is closed.

There will be a lot of flood tourism this weekend and over the holiday. The river is expected to crest sometime over the weekend, stay tuned.
