I'm in central Iowa, and I have never seen the rivers and lakes so low. Big Creek, that's part of the Des Moines River system, is currently showing more than six feet of extra shoreline. The DNR wanted to put in new boat ramps this winter, and the builders were able to pour the concrete footings in place instead of floating the docks into position.

If the precipitation pattern doesn't change, it's going to make this years harvest look like a windfall compared to next years I'm afraid.
