Indications point to rising Cedar River water as snow melts and spring rains follow. A letter from G A Hanson, traffic manager of the Greater Waterloo association, reports a heavy 350 inch snowfall at Lyle Allan near the Cedar River, likely to swell the river toward flood stage after snowmelt and rains. Locals note Lyle’s proclivity for heavy drifts and past train delays due to winter snow.
