  • The unusually large amount of widespread and ongoing rainfall has lead to much flooding of lakes and rivers and consequentially homes and other vital infrastructure. Our hearts go out to those affected.

    The dam is no longer holding the water back for maintaining the lake. It looks like the river has taken its place back in Minnesota.

    ‘looks to me like the dam is doing just fine. How could they let this happen? Extreme negligence.

    I like the flight from upstream down to the dam! No one is really showing the changes happening to the upstream run as result of the head-cutting. Do you know if the rapids at the bend were always there or new?

      I dont think they were at least not at that extent at all.

      The Watonwan River comes in from the west just upstream. Given the amount of fall there were probably a series of rapids.

    What type of drone did you use. Are they difficult to fly

    • @FlyingFrogger
      @FlyingFrogger  3 месяца назад

      It's a DJI mini 2 which are around 500 bucks and you'll want to practice with other inexpensive drones like 25 bucks to get used to function of controls. If your comfortable with drone controls then the DJI mini 2 is easy to fly and even has return to home so that in the event you loose signal or will return to your home point , being where you started the flight from or wherever you want it it to go back to there's a setting. It has satelights that use GPS to do this

      The dam was built by the lowest bidder

    I wonder if the river is going to create an oxbow lake? If it does, it might erode through the town.

    • @FlyingFrogger

      I could see that happening after seeing how easily that side eroded into the river . it does look like it wants to bypass that bend

    [[ URGENT!!! John 3:16 For God loved the world, so He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Realize you're a SINNER! You CANNOT earn your way into heaven! JESUS is the ONLY way! REPENT and CALL upon JESUS to SAVE you now! BELIEVE that JESUS is the Son of God, that He came in the flesh, lived a sinless life and then died on a CROSS for you! TRUST that God raised JESUS from the dead on the third day! By FAITH accept the shed BLOOD of JESUS ALONE as payment for YOUR sins! Almighty God is about to pour out JUDGEMENT on this world! Only Christians born again in the SPIRIT are about to VANISH! Dear LORD, please soften hearts now to accept the GOSPEL - the Good News of JESUS CHRIST!
