Rounds of showers and thunderstorms moved across the region from late Sunday afternoon (Sep 6th) through the early morning hours of Labor Day (Sep 7th). Repeat heavy rains impacted parts of western and north-central Wisconsin, including Clark, Jackson, Buffalo and Trempealeau Counties. Amounts from 4 to 7 inches were reported that led to flash flooding, erosion, culvert washouts, and damaged roadways.
The hardest hit areas were near and along Highway 10, including the communities of Mondovi, Eleva, Strum and Osseo. Much of this rain fell in the Buffalo River basin or channel that flows to the west near Highway 10. Several communities began sand bagging to hold back rising waters.
Clark County reported damaged and closed roads due to culvert wash outs and undermining of road surfaces. Jackson County also had some roads closed, including high water that stranded three residents. Trempealeau County had flooded basements, homes, and businesses from Osseo, to Strum, and west to Eleva. Family Farms in Eleva was flooded and many nearby roads were damaged or washed out. Buffalo County had road closures and some homes near Mondovi and the Buffalo River were threatened by high water.
