On
Sunday, Adam Charron set his drone aloft over areas of
Lincoln to show flooding that was taking place along
Kickapoo Creek and other waterways. Charron took shots
around the edges of Lincoln, looking northward on Route
121 toward Hartsburg, westward on Route 10 toward Mason
City and southward on Lincoln Parkway past the
fairground. The shots clearly show that water was an
issue in many parts of the community.
On Monday, Charron went to Lawndale to take aerial shots
of the flooding that is troubling the residents of that
town. While there was still a lot of water in places it
would not normally be seen, it was also noted that the
levels had dropped somewhat since the day prior when
sandbagging efforts were underway.
One dramatic difference
can be noted comparing the picture on the left from Adam
to the shot on the right taken Sunday.
