Shocking Images Of POWERFUL Floods SLAMMING Nebraska - 100 MILLION Americans Under Flood Alerts

The remnants of Hurricane Polo just dropped the wettest day in 139 years of records on Lincoln, Nebraska, put about 50 people into rescue boats at a single intersection in Omaha, trapped a family of four in a camper in an Arizona wash with the water at the hood, and stalled more than 1,100 flights at the Dallas airport — all in one night. And the hurricane that did it died in Mexico three days ago, more than a thousand miles from Nebraska. More than 100 million Americans, from Arizona to Iowa, are under flood alerts tonight. And the line of storms carrying the rest of the water runs from the Rio Grande to the Great Lakes. IN THIS VIDEO • Omaha, Wednesday night: 4 to 7 inches in 2 to 3 hours, 80 rescue calls between 11 PM and 2 AM, about 50 people out by boat at 62nd and J in 6 to 8 feet of water — "it exceeded a 100-year event" • Lincoln: 6.15 inches, the all-time daily record (old record 5.45, August 1910); 11.49 for September; Little Salt Creek 4 feet above its record crest • Craggy Wash, Arizona: a 25-year-old and a 28-year-old, their sons aged 1 and 3, two dogs and two cats, the water at the hood — rescued by the Mohave County Sheriff's search-and-rescue team • Dallas, Thursday: 2 to 3 inches an hour, 4 inches on the ground by 10:17, 1,132 delays and 324 cancellations at DFW by 11:21, 15,000 without power, the State Fair opening late • Oklahoma City's 13 rescue calls; Tulsa's dozens; Kansas's Solomon River through a park in Beloit and a governor's verbal disaster declaration; two tornadoes • Why it is happening here: Yale Climate Connections on the dead storm's "considerable" moisture, Hurricane Rachel, the Gulf and the stalled front — "thunderstorms behave like train cars following the same track" • "It is extremely rare for a Pacific tropical cyclone to impact Nebraska" — and the first September since 1945 with no Atlantic hurricane • The three counts: 22 million, 100 million, 150 million — and what comes next from Dallas to the Southeast SOURCES KOLN 10/11 (Oct 1) · Nebraska Public Media / The Reader (Jessica Wade, Oct 1) · KMTV 3 News Now (Tim Schmidt, Oct 1) · Yale Climate Connections (Irene Sans, Bob Henson, Jeff Masters, Oct 1) · ABC15 Arizona (Mohave County Sheriff's Office) · CBS News Texas live blog (Oct 1) · Hoodline (DFW; Oklahoma City, Oct 1) · KWCH (Oct 1; Gov.
