Heavy rain fell once again across a large part of Iowa, especially across the north and northeast.  This rain fell on rivers that were already close to flood stage as they were just beginning to fall after the flooding from  earlier in the month.  The rainfall of the first week of June set the state for what would become record flooding over a large part of the northeast half of Iowa, even eclipsing the records set just 15 years previous in 1993.  Damage became widespread, both to property and infrastructure as well as agriculturally.  More details of the record rains will be included with the next event, which occurred just a couple days later.
