If you're someone who pays close attention to the news, you've probably already seen that the state of Nebraska is experiencing historic flooding. It is so bad that 74 cities and 65 counties have declared a state of emergency.
Personally, I don't think it's getting the coverage that it needs, but I've seen the devastating images of towns and cities completely underwater; elderly people being rescued with their helpless pets by boat and the one thing you don't ever want to have to think about- people and animals dying.
