May 2008FloodCrocketts Bluff-Heavy rainfall in March and April, combined with a high Mississippi River stage, caused a prolonged high water event along the lower White River. In the St. Charles vicinity, high water had flooded some small communities and delayed planting of cropland in the floodplain. The river receded in May with the primary impact being the delayed planting of corn and rice, causing many farmers to switch to soybeans.
