Flash Flooding Creates Virtual River on Illinois Farm

Flooding inundated a family farm in Belle Rive, Illinois, on June 16, according to local media.

Rob Kiefer posted videos to Twitter that his sister, Christina Epperson, had filmed, showing the water flooding the land at Kiefer Farms.

Local media reported that at least five inches of rain had fallen in the area on that day.

“Had a little rain today… this might be all she wrote for the 2019 planting season,” Kiefer said on Twitter. Credit: Christina Epperson via Storyful
