Apparently, month-to-date rainfall at KFSD is (or was at the time the blog post was written) 138% of the previous record rainfall for the entire month of June, and that station has a 121-year period of record. A section of I-29 south of Sioux Falls has been closed due to flooding.

The weather system currently afflicting you is presumably the same one that produced a double tornado in Nebraska yesterday. But apart from this blog post and the aforementioned Weather Underground post, I haven’t heard anything about the flooding up your way.
