Fortunately the flooding hasn't been very deadly. A lot of destruction and displacement, a lot of homeless people, lost crops, etc. but not a lot of death. From two days ago "Two more deaths were reported Monday in Iowa, bringing the state's death toll to five." ap.google.com In terms of death it resembles a bad car accident more than a serious natural disaster. That's the silver lining in this dark cloud. Edit - Considering other states its worse than a car accident, but still much lower than many other cases where large areas where flooded.
