Had some training in Des Moines today for work, so drove out there this morning, wondering if the Interstate would even be open. It (thankfully) was, but there was a good ten mile stretch between Colfax and Mitchellville that was heavily waterlogged- the ditches running along 80 were full in and around Baxter and if rain shows up as expected this weekend, it wouldn't surprise me if 1-80 shuts down for a day or two.
But water is receding in Ames and I-35 is back open. The trick is now to keep the central part of the state dry for a few days. Fingers crossed for 'em!
