In One Day, I-380 and Cedar Rapids Report More than Three Dozen Accidents

By Steve Lombardi

Let's talk snow conditions and slick roads. Linn County, Iowa is normally a peaceful place; but adding snow, ice and slick roads to the mix and you've got a recipe for an auto collision disaster. In just one day police and the Iowa State Patrol responded to more than three dozen collisions in the area. Cedar Rapids is the place where flooding closed the court houses for both the state and federal bench.

You'd think people would just stay home, but they don't.

You'd think Cedar Rapids would get a break, but it isn't.

See the flooding that occurred in June of 2008.

There is only one thing I can think of that compares. All that Cedar Rapids is missing are pestilence. Watch as all of those from Linn County run into Johnston County to escape the flooding waters of the Cedar River. (Just kidding!)
