Swift channel breach floods Coralville Edgewater area
A strong current on Edgewater Drive sent fast moving water around homes near the Coralville Marriott site. Residents blamed a levee for directing floodwater, while city officials said they warned residents in advance and aid continued. Local residents cited prior flooding in 1993 and praised some city help.
