Throw back – last great flood

Mississippi River
Mississippi River at downtown St. Paul, April 2019

In 2019, the river flooded as it often does. This year, the water is low due to a lack of rain. The Mississippi River is considered the most endangered river in 2025 by American Rivers, a nonprofit environmental advocacy organization. Due to Federal funding cuts for flood mitigation. The lower part of the river flooded last April.

St. Paul is a river city and the last great city of the East.
