And the [Indiana] Governor worries it may not be the last blow. He said more rain, especially in the northern part of the state, could lead to even more flooding.
Source: wunderground.com"Again, if more water comes down from north, we may have not seen the worst of it," Governor Daniels said.
Daniels spelled out what the state is doing to respond. He said the state of emergency declarations will help things happen more quickly.
"I wanted to make certain that if swift action's necessary to protect life or property that it happens on the fastest possible schedule," Governor Daniels said.
The Governor's Director of Homeland Security, Joe Wainscott, said this is some of the worst flooding he's ever witnessed.

A record high low temperature of 74 degrees was recored at Grand Rapids yesterday... June 6th.
The previous record high low temperature for June 6th was 72 set in both 1999 and in 1925.
Based on Grand Rapids records back to 1892... there has not been a day with a warmer low temperature earlier in the season. The low has been as warm as 74 degrees earlier than this twice... on June 1st 1934 and June 5th 1925.
While individual anomalies like this will occur, the question is if all of them were collected each day, would this represent a trend toward extreme weather? Note that extremes of all kind including cold are the result of global warming. Does such a collection exist?
