Risk of Flooding from Missouri to Michigan

Last year, much of the Midwest was bracing for a rough ride with building heat and drought.
The year before, the story was record-challenging flooding.
This year, concerns have again flipped to flooding. Areas with an ongoing or developing flood potential extend from portions of northern Arkansas and Missouri to Michigan.
Late winter and early spring storms have made up for snow and rain deficits, pushing streams to bank full and have major rivers running well above their near-record lows from the start of the year.

There have already been some flooding incidents and more are possible over the next couple of weeks.
Factoring in the rain that fell to start the week, and what may fall through the balance of the week, some locations may rack up 3 to 6 inches of rain during the period from Monday through Friday.
