House next to Rapidan Dam falls into Blue Earth River

AccuWeather: Government officials in Iowa are seeking an expedited presidential disaster declaration due to the severity of the flooding. In southern Minnesota near Mankato, the Rapidan Dam on the Blue Earth River was near imminent failure Monday due to a collection of debris amid the flooding, according to KCRG-TV. Surging water had heavily eroded and damaged the side discharge channel.

Oh Lord we pray your hand of safety and guidance upon all the victims of the regions under flood conditions. Bless these people Lord and keep them safe. Do not let the flood waters steal their lives. Drive back the floods to protect their homes and their precious animals. We thank you Lord for all the folks who are helping those in need. Let is show more and more love to all people everyday. As you teach us in your Word Lord, A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another:
just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
 
By this all people will know that you are my disciples,
if you have love for one another.
John 13:34-35 In your mighty and loving name, JESUS! JESUS! AMEN!

Our hearts break for all the people suffering from the floods.

RAPIDAN, Minn. (KEYC) – The home of the owners of the Rapidan Dam Store has fallen into the Blue Earth River.

As the western side of the river bank has been washed away since early Monday, eyes have been on the home after the river washed away all the transformers and other buildings on the site. More Here

We continue to pray for all the lowering of the water levels all over Minnesota, Iowa and South Dakota and in any area suffering from flooding. Our heart goes out to you all!

Relentless rains this month have caused 17 manure pits at 15 large farms in southwestern Minnesota to overflow, releasing livestock waste into the environment.

The overflows, all at open pit lagoons, happened in Rock, Nobles and Jackson counties, said Andrea Cournoyer, a spokeswoman for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). The agency is working to monitor and mitigate any potential damage from the spills, she said. More Here
