South Eastern MN Flooding… Particularly the part by my house
6 Comments Published by Jordan Ogren August 20th, 2007 in Photography Tags: Landscape, Mazy, Toby Schmidt, Weather, Winona.So….here’s what happens when you have flooding of record proportions (16 inches of rain in 24 hours!) and you live next to a flood plain…
These pictures were taken late saturday night and early sunday morning. I was able to get some pretty decent shots by waiting for large flashes of lighting… so that’s why some of them look like daylight… when it’s really midnight-ish.

These were mostly taken Sunday morning… after everything subsided. As you can see… we are gonna need a bulldozer…
UPDATE: Just FYI, Mazy, our dog, is not dead she’s just laying down looking cute and muddy.(see caption on the picture)
Here is before…
And this is after…
Last, but not least, here is a link to some more pictures of west Goodview/Winona area.

That just… blows… wow… Biggest disaster to hit Winona and I’m not there for it… darn…

Thanks for sharing! I’m sure that the pictures don’t do this disaster justice….although it looks pretty darn bad!
Take care Ogrens,

Those were some pretty tough pictures to see! Hope all of you were ok even though one of you weren’t there. I hope that you were in a safe place while you were taking those pictures of the storm. Hope you guys keep in touch while cleaning up after the storm! Take care of yourselves and hope to see you at camp next year!
