爱荷华州西北部的洪水，由大雨艾奥瓦州州长说，飓风已经影响了1900处房产，数百处被毁。金·雷诺兹周日告诉记者。
在一次媒体吹风会上，雷诺兹说，周六有250次水上救援，超过1000名居民不得不在夜间避难。
从周五开始，一些地区遭遇了高达15英寸的降雨，导致了严重的洪水。
雷诺兹说，河流的最高水位比1993年的洪水记录高出几英尺，16个洪水计量器记录了历史水平。
截至周六晚上，自然资源部报告称，10个供水系统和21个废水系统受到了洪水的影响。
对该地区进行空中巡视的雷诺兹星期天说，破坏是严重和普遍的。
据雷诺兹说，周末早些时候，苏县宣布了初步的灾难紧急公告。此外，爱荷华州国民警卫队被指示建立一个救援任务的直升机。她说，国土安全部的城市搜索和救援队被部署进行水上救援。
周日，雷诺兹提交了一份加快总统重大灾难声明的请求。在那份申请中，他们要求为9个县提供额外的联邦援助，为22个县提供公共援助。
州长的国土安全和应急管理主任约翰·本森说，他们仍在不知疲倦地工作，因为情况远未结束。本森说，天气预报称未来一周会有更多降雨，密苏里河的水位正在迅速上升。
雷诺兹周日晚上表示，随着降雨的增加，洪水可能会继续成为一个问题，并可能影响该州的其他地区。
根据国家气象局的数据，除了爱荷华州西北部，爱荷华州中西部，明尼苏达州西南部，内布拉斯加州东北部，南达科他州中部，南达科他州中东部，南达科他州中南部和南达科他州东南部都有危险的天气前景。
根据NWS的说法，溪流、小溪和河流“处于中等至大洪水阶段，导致道路持续关闭”。
Flooding in northwest Iowa leads to 250 water rescues, hundreds of properties destroyed
Flooding in northwest Iowa, caused byheavy rainfall, has impacted 1,900 properties, leaving hundreds destroyed, Iowa Gov.Kim Reynoldstold reporters Sunday.
During a media briefing, Reynolds said there had been 250 water rescues on Saturday, and over 1,000 residents had to be sheltered overnight.
Beginning on Friday, some areas were hit with up to 15 inches of rain, resulting in severe flooding.
Rivers crested several feet above record levels from the floods of 1993, and 16 flood gauges recorded historic levels, Reynolds said.
As of Saturday night, the Department of Natural Resources reported that 10 water systems and 21 wastewater systems had been affected by the flooding.
Reynolds, who took an aerial tour of the region, said Sunday the devastation is severe and widespread.
An initial disaster emergency proclamation for Sioux County was declared earlier in the weekend, according to Reynolds. Additionally, the Iowa National Guard was directed to set up a helicopter for rescue missions. Homeland's Urban Search and Rescue teams were deployed for water rescues, she said.
On Sunday, Reynolds submitted a request for an expedited Presidential Major Disaster Declaration. In that request, they're asking for additional federal assistance for nine counties and public assistance for 22 counties.
The governor's Director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, John Benson, said they are still working tirelessly because the situation is far from over. The forecast calls for more rain in the coming week, and the river gauges in the Missouri River are quickly rising, Benson said.
With the additional rain, flooding could continue to be an issue and may impact other parts of the state as well, Reynolds said Sunday night.
In addition to northwest Iowa, west central Iowa, southwest Minnesota, northeast Nebraska, central South Dakota, east central South Dakota, south-central South Dakota, and southeast South Dakota all have a hazardous weather outlook, according to the National Weather Service.
Streams, creeks and rivers are "in moderate to major flood stage leading to continued road closures," per the NWS.
