Areas between the Boonville Bridge, New Franklin and Rocheport are under mandatory evacuation orders this morning due to a levee that has been overtopped and is expected to fail. I expect this means no biking, no alternate road routes to go East from Boonville along the Trail. More water is coming from upstream, so I expect this area will be underwater for awhile.

Thanks for sharing the link Sharonbikes. Interesting that the first sentence in the article is: The Mississippi River is nearing levels only seen in 1993 in some places north of St. Louis and presenting problems as it over-tops protective barriers.

In northern Missouri, 1993 today is commonly referenced as the milestone flood with levee's overtopped and completely washed out. Today there are areas reporting more road closures and standing water than in 1993 without the levee breaches.
