One of the 2 bridges at Quincy is closed due to high water. Several others up and down the Mississippi are closed or will be closed soon. Crest is expected to be 4th high on record middle of next week. My home town; La Grange, MO is 10 miles upstream from Quincy. The down town area gets hit hard during high water. La Grange has no levee to protect it from the river. Fortunately most residents live on the hills above the river. In my 72 years, I have never seen the River rise this quickly!
