Wednesday morning Ken left early to explore the flooding situation. The guard rails were covered with ice forming as cars and trucks passed through the water that flowed over the highway the day before. The road itself was icy but relatively free of flowing water.
Ken ventured into Lions Park where Christmas decorations were affected by the ice and snow. Although the park was flooded and covered in ice he managed to reach the Madison River.
The ice jammed up under the bridge caused the river to gorge and overflow its banks. It looks like it will be some time before temperatures will moderate enough to thaw the ice.
Temperatures rose as high as forty degrees by yesterday along with strong winds. This morning it is ten degrees and tiny snowflakes are falling. I am glad I get to stay inside today.
