Flooding - 05/10

We aren't having flood troubles here, the ground is wet and there are lots of puddles but that's it for us. In Brandon, though, it's a totally different story. I wasn't able to get near the river to get any pictures myself, but I've found some online.
I've never seen so much water.
It's unbelievable.
Shocking.

Would you believe, from this photo, that we have no lakes, only a relatively narrow river, running through the town?
that's 18th, running past the corral centre - walmart (you can see the store front), home depot (the orange), medical clinic (blue roofs)
Another photo of 18th, running past the same area. The white line you see is the wall of super sandbags. You can see a bit of the flooded road near the bottom right of the picture.
closer look at same area (montana's on the left there), again the wall of sandbags

1st street
the bottom right flooded area should be the big soccer fields.
again 1st street
the park across from the soccer fields
(where the youngest kids play soccer)
