In our Wisconsin look, an update on the flood waters ravaging Wisconsin. The hardest areas are in Buffalo, Crawford, Grant, Monroe, La Crosse and Vernon Counties which saw up to 7 inches of rain along with straight-line winds. In Arcadia, hundreds of people had to be evacuated from homes. And the business district was flooded. The Kickapoo River in Vernon County remains a concern. Some state parks and trails have also been closed as a result of flooding and downed trees. More heavy rain coupled with flooding last week is making it hard to assess the damage in southeast Wisconsin. Burlington has been swamped. Residents with wells are being advised to chlorinate and test their water for bacteria. Damage in Kenosha, Racine and Walworth Counties is expected to exceed $26 million.
