http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floods_in_the_United_States:_1901%E2%80%932000
Floods in the United States are generally caused by excessive rainfall, excessive snowmelt, and dam failure. Below is a list of flood events that were of significant impact to the country, between 1901 and 2000. The third deadliest flash flood in US history, the normally placid Willow Creek burst its banks during an intense rain and hail storm. The city of Heppner, at the foothills of the Blue Mountains in eastern Oregon, was almost completely destroyed. 220 of Heppner’s 1,400 residents died in the flood. Flooding was more significant along the Grand, Saginaw, Kalamazoo, and River Raisin river basins than the St. Joseph and Huron River basins. In Lansing, it was the worst flood in the previous 135 years of its history. Many dams were either undermined or swept away. Kalamazoo saw two square miles of flooding during this event. It was also considered the most destructive flood in Grand Rapids history. The Grand River went above bankfull on the night of March 24, rising slowly for the next four days. It broke the previous high water mark by over 60 cm (2. 0 ft), and was considered a once in 100 year flood. Over one-half of the population on the west side of the river was inundated. On the east bank of the river, numerous factories went underwater. There was one casualty. Damages totaled US$1. 8 million (1904 dollars). To the left is an image showing the flooding in Battle Creek. A storm in late 1906 reported highest ever rainfalls in a southeast to northwest direction from Monterey to Ione in the Sierra Nevada foothills. An area of 300,000 acres (1,200 km2) was flooded in the Sacramento Valley. Snowmelt combined with heavy rains by March 16 allowed the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers to swell out of their banks, leading to a flood of record in Pittsburgh. Damage to the city was estimated at US$5 million (1907 dollars). The death toll was low, with 6–12 perishing during the inundation. In February, snowstorms had deposited a significant snowpack across the region. Then, in early March, heavy rains and warmer conditions set in, setting the stage for a flood. The Kalamazoo River flooded Albion when the Homer Dam broke around 3 p. m. on March 7. By midnight, the bridges surrounding town were underwater. Six buildings in Albion collapsed, which caused over US$125,000 in damage (1908 dollars). The storm extended from Fort Ross on the coast to the Feather River basin. LaPorte, in the Feather River basin, had 1,458 mm (57. 4 in) of rain in 20 days, an event with a return period of 12,000 years. The flood episodes of 1907 and 1909 in California resulted in an overhaul of planned statewide flood control designs. Heavy rains filling the Bayless reservoir cracked the concrete dam, sending an estimated 450,000,000 gallons downstream destroying most of the boroughs of Austin and Costello. A total of 78 people from Austin and 2 from Costello perished during the inundation. Nearly 254 mm (10. 0 in) of rain during a series of three winter storms led to this flood event, which affected southwest, central, and eastern Ohio, especially cities and towns along the Great Miami River and Olentangy River valleys, as well as Indianapolis, eastern Indiana, and western Pennsylvania. Fires and tornadoes also wrought destruction. Dayton was totally devastated, being inundated for three days in late March. The floods also put the Ohio and Erie Canal out of business for good, destroying most of the locks and many miles of embankments. The death toll from this flood was 361 with total damages of US$100 million. On the Olentangy River, this flood broke the previous record for river stage by over 4. 5 m (15 ft). In the town of Delaware, Ohio, 50–75 perished when a break in the levee allowed a 7-foot-tall (2. 1 m) wall of water to sweep through downtown. Five of the town’s bridges washed away. The state capital, Columbus, suffered its worst ever flooding from the Olentangy and Scioto rivers.

Video about Giant Arbs and how fast they grow in the Landscape Thuja Green Giant arbs growth Rate see http://www.greengiantarbs.com for more about green giants and how fast they grow. We are Highland Hill farm of Fountainville Pa 18923 call us at 215 651 8329 The original Green Giant got its name not from ancient lore, but from unusually extra large, hence “giant,” green peas. These “Green Giant Peas” were introduced by the Minnesota Valley Canning Company in 1925, in contrast to their previously marketed LeSueur baby peas, early-picked in June. Founded in 1903, this pea company was located in the valley of the Minnesota River, the Dakota Sioux name for “cloudy water,” just southwest of Minneapolis and St. Paul, the state capital. This is where there’s a “confluence” with the even cloudier and muddier Mississippi River giving the whole area, including the surrounding towns like LeSueur, the title of “the Minnesota Valley.” Lesueur is the name of the original explorer of the area, a Frenchmen of the early 1700’s. By 1950, the “Jolly Green Giant” was so popular, such an “icon” as we say today, with a cartoon character created, etc., he became the basis of the company’s new name. So that is where Green Giant comes from, modern marketing, not ancient lore…
The Green Giant Arborvitae is more properly named by tree scientists the “Thuja Plicata,” with the other common historic names being, “giant cedar,” also “western cedar,” and “red cedar.” There’s only one other Arborvitae specie in all of North America, the “eastern cedar,” or “white cedar,” with “Thuja Occidentalis,” as the tree scientist’s Latin name, the botanist’s name. This short tree is actually what we usually think of when the “genus” juniper is mentioned.
Funny that the eastern cedar was given the Latin name for “west” which is “occidental.” You see? As I have observed before, what’s in a name? Highland Hill Farm is not located in a town called Highland Hills, or, on Highland Hill Road, etc. Scottish Highland Hills cows that we grazed on our first property provided our company with a distinctive name when we sold our first trees in 1978.
