Record rainfall in St. Louis, Missouri submerges cars, floods highways

Record rainfall caused flash floods early Tuesday in parts of St. Louis, Miss., which was so heavy, it broke the city’s daily rainfall record.
The record was last set in August 1915, and with this rainfall, that record broke in just five hours.
According to the St. Louis National Weather Service, the city recorded 8.06 inches (20.4 cm) of rain.
At least four state highways and several other major roads were closed as a result of the flooding, according to the state Department of Transportation.
The flooding inundated roadways, shutting down more than two dozen sections of major roads that crisscross the area.
Local authorities urged residents to stay home as water levels rose, leaving cars and motorists stranded.

Living in B.C. I can sympathize, being at the mercy of mother nature. Last year we had colder than usual winter, a hotter than usual summer (heat dome), along with the forest fires and atmospheric rain. Our high ways were badly damaged if not washed out completely, same thing with many bridges, and business's and homes were submerged in water.

Praying for all affected by the flooding John 3:16-17 King James Version 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: The gospel is the good news of Jesus Christ. Jesus died for our sins, He was buried and He rose again on the third day. JESUS LOVES YOU Normal isn’t coming back, but Jesus Christ is. May today be the day you believe (i.e trust in Jesus Christ ) and you are saved. Blessings to you in Jesus Christ mighty name.

Luke 21:25-28 King James Version And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

[@soundthetrumpet6606]

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 Jesus Christ is coming soon, soon this world will be no more. Today if you hear His voice harden not your hearts. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus today!! And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. Revelation 22:12
