Winter Rain Hits Southwestern Iowa After Storms
The first winter rain in three years swept Southwestern Iowa with a heavy downpour and north wind. Rain totals exceeded one and a half inches but frozen ground limited runoff, keeping creeks and rivers lower than expected. The broad system affected the central region, with heavier rain east and south, and bridges over the West Nishna in Fremont County were not all lost. A temporary Waubonsie Trail bridge will be usable next week as crews improve roads and assist stuck vehicles. Proceeds from a local fundraiser at Mirfield Jewelry Store support the fur association.
