#NOAA / #NWS alert: Flash flood warning for Howard County in central #MO. At 14:20 CDT, a levee failed near Hwy Z and Hwy 87. Affected: Franklin, New Franklin, Rocheport. Although #I-70 is not mentioned, it does pass near this area. Also not mentioned is the Katy Trail, but it is mostly adjacent to the River in that area, so it goes without saying that it may be dangerous. If you’re in Mid #Missouri, be prepared to move to higher ground.
