Kansas- Missouri Flood Crests Moving Downriver


Stages continue to fall along the Marais des Cygnes river as the flood crest has now entered the upper reaches of the Osage River above Truman Reservoir.

Down south water remains high. Officials continue to watch an oil slick produced by 42000 gallons of oil spilled into floodwaters in Coffeyville-KS..

Those official CLAIM the oil "will dissipate" before it reaches Oologah reservoir northeast of Tulsa-OK.. However no doubt hundreds of flooded structures also contaminated by the leaked oil will have to be demolished.

No rain in the forecast for any of the flooded areas until late Wednesday or early Thusrday and certainly no rain amounts like 5 days ago.
