unfortunately, pete. we have witnessed thunderstorms and rain storms over the past couple hours which means more precipitation has fallen here exactly what that looks like will probably be seen as the sunrises. we have been in arkansas for a few days. we have seen the raging arkansas river rise. the forecast calls for the crest today at 42.5 feet. that is an all-time high and nearly double the flood staple. we are standing on highway 22 right now, which is a four-lane road which has been engulfed by the arkansas river. you can make out some of the businesses that are under water. this 4-lane road looks more like a lake right now than a thorough fare. unfortunately this flooding has already claimed one life here. police say a person was found drowned in a car submerged on this very road that we are standing on. police are pleading with people to engage in life-saving activity instead of risking anything near flooding water. stay out of the flooded
