Flood Woes Drift Downriver Photos

A farm is submerged by floodwaters from the Mississippi River Thursday, June 19, 2008, south of La Grange, Mo. A 280-mile stretch of the Mississippi River between Fulton, Ill., and Winfield, Mo., is expected to remain closed for at least 10 more days because of flooding. As many as 10 tows #151; each with as many as 15 barges — were believed stuck on the upper Mississippi River.
