The National Weather Service Hydrology page 
( 
http://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=dvn&gage=flti2&view=1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1)
 shows that the Mississippi River has crested and is receding at Fulton, 
Illinois (down stream from Savanna).  We can only hope that the water has gone 
down.  But I am sure that the rebuilding will take much longer than it did for 
Mother Nature to cause the damage.

Are there any reports on whether the Mississippi River has crested yet in 
the Savanna area? Does anyone know what the height of the water was there 
at crest? I was a student at Loras College in Dubuque in 1965 during one 
of the record crests ever recorded. That record escapes my memory but I 
can vividly recall getting a tetanus shot and working on the sandbag line 
trying to keep US 20 open from East Dubuque to Dubuque.
