Vienna, 2nd rock left.
Offutt AFB is home of U.S. Strategic Command, 557th Weather Wing & 55th Wing.

Guess their weather guys didn't see that coming wink

that is 3 bases almost "totaled" in 2 years.

When an ice jam can do this much damage, its not wonder its under water. This is on the Niobra river in northern NE and happened a week ago.

8 months prier to failure.


24 hours after the failure.

The entire midwest looks to be having one helluva spring, this year...
Smiling at the various "mission capable" comments which (deservedly) abound, the one comment that made me LoL was this one:

Couldn't help myself - I guffawed... :-)
