Flooding was a major problem yesterday into today, and a flood warning has been in effect for Jackson, Jefferson, and Northern Shawnee Counties.
My Grandma, who live in Jefferson County on Perry Lake, was OK. Most of the roads leading to her house were dry; however, there was one low spot that may have flooded briefly. It was still somewhat passable, though someone may have to order some more gravel.
River flood warnings were issued for Soldier Creek, Cross Creek, and the Kansas River. Soldier Creek briefly exceeded the levy levels, and the Kaw was high enough to flood out Burcham Park here in Lawrence.
