Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The floods of March-May 1965 in the upper Mississippi River basin occurred as two different events, one during the latter part of February and early March and the other starting early in April and extending into May. Factors contributing to the floods were rapid melting of the winter accumulation of snow, heavy rains on the snow pack, and deeply frozen ground throughout much of the basin, which made the soil almost impervious and thereby greatly increased the amount of runoff. Peak stages and discharges during the floods exceeded previous known maxima at many points. Included in this report are peak stages and discharges for these floods at 333 sites; flood damages; effect of drainage and storage on flood peaks; and the operations of the U.S. Geological Survey and other Federal agencies during the flood emergency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many times have you heard the television or radio alert, “We are now under a flash flood watch”? While the destructive force of flash flooding is a regular occurrence in the state and has caused a tremendous amount of damage and heartache over the years, no one until now has recorded in a single book the history of flash floods in Texas. After combing libraries and archives, grilling county historians, trekking to flood sites, and collecting scores of graphic photographs, Jonathan Burnett chose twenty-eight floods from around the state to create this narrative of a century of disastrous events. Beginning with the famous Austin dam break of 1900 and ending with the historic 2002 flooding in the Hill Country, Burnett chronicles the causes and courses of these catastrophic floods as well as their costs in material damage and human lives. Dramatic photographs of each event enhance the harrowing accounts of danger spawned by nature on a rampage. Together, the stories and the pictures give readers a vivid and lasting image of the power and unpredictability of flash floods in Texas.
