It was hot today, then again IT IS FRICKING SUMMER!
It was in the 70s in February here in Indiana June 1st Heat Wave
I've never seen nothing like it
Ya might wanna go to Bible study
Uncle Amos said...this is what 100 plus years old US infrastructure looks like... get it?
Exactly so not because of water but negligence
Looks ok in Google Earth.
Trump 2024 🇺🇸
We haven't built ANYTHING in the last 20 yrs. Just patching up structures built DECADES ago.
@@YooperMan906 And this is what America will look like!!!
Imminent risk. Who writes this junk.
Right?
😂😂😂
People.
Risk ..lol it's goooone .
I mean sure, the world is burning up because we set everything on fire, but this person's words aren't quite right!
In Sioux Falls, SD here we so far at getting record lows for june. Tomorrow hot but now that's normal.. And we have had floods for decades. Since the 60's they have had to wrestle with this and in North Sioux City they started building houses where it's always been flood plain.
Yes ...weather happens every day. BUT FOLLOW ALONG ...RECORD RAINS+++ RECORD HEAT +++RECORD DROUGHT+++ETC +++EVERY YEAR FOR LIKE 20 YEARS that is the result of a heating planet. Get over the sheepish climate hoax bleating!!!!!! It is here!!!
Most dams were built about 100 years ago. No surprise they are starting to fail
I think your rails need updating to, poor buggers with that water though.
@@Peter-ww9bwsure limey, your little island is doing so well 😂😂
I actually looks like the dam is holding but a build up of detris and trees, has blocked the water from passing thru normally. Water circumvented the blockage and is eating the structure from the sides.
@@MJ-fj9yv Not a limey bring up silver link bridge, clue staunchest Allies since the corn cob man fled Asia
This one was built in 1910, that house is compromised, but hopefully the business/store will be okay.
Hey atleast there's no gators or sharks.
Or batteries that could shock you
I see Crocs there..
Update: gator shark crocodile hybrids have been spotted and folks... They're powered by lithium ions
Omg I heard about that couple who passed away due to a rip tide, now this.
Praying for Iowa. 2000 homes qnd businesses.😢 Oh my God please help our country. 🙏
We never had air conditioning when I was a kid and we lived thru the same temperatures and hotter.
There is data to show that, on average, record breaking heat for longer Than normal is happening across the US. Sure, you might have experienced hotter days, but we look at averages and nationwide
@@dkaspar67 Yeah because we live in reality, not soyality.
Why can't Army corps of engineers remove debris from the damn?
Water pressure is forcing the debris down. They are instead bolstering levies to protect the community if/when the dam collapses. It may not even collapse given the water has destroyed the abutment and is more going around the dam. River will crest tomorrow and then in the following days the debris may be able to be cleared.
spent all the money doing laundry in Ukraine perhaps
Minnesota is purifying itself.
Record breaking heat? I’ve lived in Phoenix Arizona since 1994 it’s all ways 109 in June EVERY year! 109 isn’t even hot to people that live here!
The news loses its mind every time the regular happens. OMG it's hot in June! Yeah, it's typically hot in June and July, duh.
Funny how the media wants everyone to believe these temps are abnormal! I grew up in riverside California, it wasn't uncommon to hit 115 degrees!
Yeah, that’s how they push the climate change agenda
.. but the damned commercials!
Yes ads non stop
Everything is Extreme !!! This is terrible but it happens every year… it’s summer, it’s Hot..
right, it was really hot last summer as well lol.
Our infrastructure is completely falling apart and we are sending money to other countries other countries.
Minnesota is receiving 5 billion in infrastructure monies
💰 ~ Depends on what country you’re talking about. It’s easy to sit back on our couches and act like things are so simple. We have adversaries in the world who are playing a game of chess this long-term and they are happy to win step-by-step. And as Americans have such a short memory and we only care about today and tomorrow, we don’t look ahead.
At one point we dominated the world as the only superpower by far, but Russia has been chipping away at us and china has made huge leaps and bounds. And we let them because much like publicly traded company CEOs we care about short term benefits over long-term benefits. China was willing to I have short term pain in order to gain long-term success. But we’re not willing to do that because our people complain about stuff that’s small.
As for the money we’re paying on foreign wars, I’ve already explained why it’s necessary. But the amount we’re paying is actually pretty small. For instance in Kansas City They are paying about $50 per citizen to pay for a sports stadium that many of them do not care about one bit. The first huge amount of money we gave Ukraine, for instance, was equivalent of every adult paying $35 a year for only 10 years. And if we have to do that in order to maintain our security and prosperity, and then it’s easily more than fine. So many other things there so less important we pay more money for. But there are plenty of places we could cut where we are giving money to other countries who are very rich and even have universal healthcare. That money should be cut most likely in my opinion. But Americans don’t care to do research on all the small amounts of money that we spend a year after year, but yet they’re shocked when we spend one large amount of money that is necessary. How about we focus on real solutions and not big ticket items that may shock us because they’re larger than normal while we ignore all the small amounts that should be reduced but we don’t pay attention to because a whole bunch of nickels and dimes are not as easy to read about on Facebook.
Quite spraying that Junk in the skies.
This is helping them create the storms and destruction. It is deliberate
@@ecoxocticeternal816 yep. I noticed they do it more right at dusk instead of mid day like they used to. Trying to hide it.
I have a friend in the UK and she said its in the evening when they really crisscross the skies there. @@richpomanFU
We don’t have time to worry about this we need to send more money to the Ukraine
Stat!
??
To Uranus....
OK
Bamn built in 1908 before WWI and you think money will fix it OK
Crop destruction and disrupted food distribution lead to hunger and malnutrition.
We must 🙏🏽God for each blessing
So many blessings 🙏🏽
love how people are casually kyaking in the flooded neighboarhood.
Is searches and rescues too dangerous? ? Lifes jackets. Boats. Airplanes. Helicopters.
OMG. The world is ending if you believe the news.
Always has been... Just ask the Japanese..
Meanwhile, farmers in Kansas need water.
Meanwhile US lost its longest war, meanwhile US has a demented president, meanwhile US is sending billions to Israel and Ukraine, meanwhile US Owes trillions to its strategic enemy China…..
Damn these dams.
Crazy. Massive flooding due to excessive rain ..... during the summer yet. 🤫
Definitely enough water for the farmers!
Too much water... can't plant crops
The flooding has destroyed many hectares of crops and farmland.
Flooding ruins crops
Farmers when there’s no water: 😱
Farmers when they get too much water: 😱
Someone skipped all the grades 😂…can’t farm in flood.
God has spoken Minnesota...
Yeah and he doesn't like Republicans in their stupid agenda
He's tired all them evil spirits 💯🗣️‼️
see all you needed was a shovel
What man makes brakes. Nothing new. N not the first or last dam. I'm sorry for the people though
Well insurance will certainly go way up for sure
With the amount of rain that's fallen across an awful lot agricultural land, food is likely to go up as well. There are farmers who have lost most, if not all, of their crops in the areas of SD, MN, and IA that have flooded. Canton SD, a largely rural area, had 18 inches of rain in three days. The Big Sioux River finally crested at 45 feet, which is 7 feet higher than the previous record high crest. There are likely to be serious economic repercussions following these floods that will affect people outside the area as well as those who live and work within it.
01:15. Thanks to the "Road closed" sign. One wouldn't have guessed.
The heat n humidity was AWFUL.
SELLING FEAR works...extremely pleasant and cool in New England today.
Oh well let’s throw out decades of data, research, and studies proving climate change because it’s a nice day where you live. Let’s close our eyes and cover our ears to everything happening around us because your house isn’t currently affected.
Well, we had a river cresting seven inches higher than the last record crest and heat/humidity combination that led to a head index of 118. The report is pretty much telling it like it is for some of us.
Scary !!
Mn does NOT need any more water. They are so wet. Its truly dangerous and very sad. Our family was over there this last weekend and saw whole house under water, roads flooded, waters rushin.
It's another extreme heat warning day for my city. 🥵
Like living near rivers or mountains side live in tornado or on edge of volcano
I'm having a hard time understanding what the problem is here, it's over 105 in Phoenix and Vegas every summer. I mean that's perfectly normal🤷♂️
They always act like that when an area is not used to getting hot or cold. Ridiculous and unnecessary the way they act like it the end of the world like they did with 💉
It's hotter earlier and for longer across the US, and ramps up every year. We have plenty of data to show this
@followsuittrading that's perfectly normal, we've got literally 2.5 millions of years of hard science that shows it, so what's ya point💁♂️
@dkaspar67 I don't know, stop being a wuss maybe🤷♂️
@@followsuittrading No you don't. They just tell you we do, and you blindly believe it.
Zillow won’t go near this town 🤨
Zillow is a tool that aggregates home prices. It doesn’t go ANYWHERE 😂
Water and fire are the two most powerful forces on Earth.
Lord,God,and angels please be with us all😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
It was a beautiful day here in northern Minnesota.
TH-cam channel: Archaix
Those DEI hires are doing GREAT work on the MN dams I see.... 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It was built over a hundred years ago?
@@tomorowsnobodys so was my fucking house.... poor excuse, move on.
@@RogerPanetta-g9n your house is hardly the same as a dam you must know that
@@RogerPanetta-g9n I’m not happy about the situation - I’m actually in the evacuation area. But I’m looking for news articles about what’s happening and i see comments like yours which honestly seem to me like you’re just mad and looking for a reason to lash about about whatever has you all worked up at the moment. Maybe I’m wrong but that’s just how it comes off. My community is suffering catastrophic flooding and DEI has nothing to do with that. If there was a news story about your house collapsing my first instinct would not be to comment anonymously on TH-cam about how DEI or whatever is to blame. I would just mind my own business or think of something helpful i could do. Anyway, have a nice day.
Please carefully get out the River going to the city saved safe God bless you all and God saved safe you all
It's that darn .04% CO2 in the air doing this!
sadly, people will think this is true lol
@@jordonpumpin Yes, the heat-absorbing gasses we have put into the air will absorb heat.
Sorry, but you don't get any prizes for denying basic physics.
@@jordonpumpin I think it's the trash in the ocean, like plastic is oil, so the plastic is dissolving in the ocean from decades, and it's turning back into it's original form "Oil", and also the greenhouse gasses producing too much heat which is evaportating excess water resulting in a pile up in the clouds, and causing floods.
@@onlylettersand0to9You're still breathing.
What is wrong with you?
Send Post10 there. He'll get that blockage cleared out
No lifeguards on duty don't go in the ocean how hard is that to comprehend.
Why is this on news 📰 from Lake County Florida?
No search and rescue? Just goodbye on your way out to sea?
Oh Crap the evil weather machine has been unleashed again!
From Texas, we had an unbelievable amount of rain beginning of June. Now another part of country. Tell govt to quit messing w the weather. HAARP etc. we have had enough
Never.go swimming when the sun goes down !! Tied is extremely strong 😢😢😢
Infrastructures falling apart everywhere so where is attention of agencies in charge of all these works? And with budgets given which is normal every fiscal year
Case ARRP weathering project Dubai month ago has triggered global 😳 mess
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram scram
He kept buttin' that dam
'Cause he had high hopes
He had high hopes
He had high apple pie
In the sky hopes
So any time you're feelin' bad
'Stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops, there goes a billion kilowatt dam
Oops, there goes a billion kilowatt dam
Oops, there goes a billion kilowatt dam
The dam has not "broken," ABC. Why are you lying?
They're ABC...
Shoot that water!
1:40 is that Crocs?
well, you built the house near the river.
Don't look up
That not the last of weather like this. More to come .
More heat more evaporation of water to feed the storms.
Ho my the sky is falling!😦😦😧😨😰😥😢😭😱😎
Praise Jesus! Those dams got what they had coming to them.
hello folks theres no imminant risk of failure, it failed already... when the waters not contained behind the dam it failed no imminant about it
Nope! The dam is perfectly intact!
1:56 I was waiting for the global warming spin.
Get a swamp cooler. And a life vest.
Is he trying to look like an awkward robot?
"at risk of imminent failure" - learn English. Imminent means it is going to happen, not "a risk".... it is happening
Kamala wrote the story...
Boy we in the west could use the mid-west excessive amounts of water . Some large capacity pumping plants canals very large diameter pipelines to millions of gallons to the head waters of the Colorado River to compincate for the drought in the southwest. Better use of infrastructure money than the wasteful spending on a over budget high speed rail L.A. to LasVegas. Maybe impossible just idea it take alot money and alot time but , right now it'll aflooing problem a waste water headed for the sea .
Dam.
Don't shoot a dog and brag about it. The Boss will punish you.
This is what happens when you straighten rivers and build on flood plains.
urged? get the hell out.
📢 use a spray bottle and a hand towel...🌬️ Be cool....
It will bring fresh fishes to the south.
Solar Minimum .
CA has 3 digit heat every year for as long as I can remember, I'm 70 thats quite a long time. Maybe if our government spent some money on America's infrastructure instead of sending all our tax money to other countries we wouldn't have damns failing!!
You didn't hear about Biden's huge infrastructure bill?
@@Bobalicious LOL

Heat is not extreme. About the Dam where is Joe Biden and build back better oh wait that money went to the Ukraine.
The normal average high in late June in SD is around 83 or 84. The heat index here was 118 today.
Ah yes, but lets deny global warming.... these comments suck. Were all gonna bake for this stupidity.
Oh no…..🤪 climate change……the sky is falling.
The Earth is giving us warning signs.
