Wisconsin's Floods Are Catastrophicand Only Getting Worse
An entire summer\u2019s worth of rain has fallen across a broad swath of the Midwest in recent days. The resulting record floods have wrecked homes and altered the paths of rivers, in one case destroying a waterfall in Minnesota. The worst-affected region, southwest Wisconsin, has received more than 20 inches of rain in 15 days\u2013 more than it usually gets in six months.
