29 MARCH 2019 - ST. PAUL, MN: A flooded playground on the bank of the Mississippi River in St. Paul. The Mississippi River through the Twin Cities has already hit flood stage. Several roads and parks in St Paul are already closed in anticipation of higher flood levels. Weather forecasters and hydrologists have backed off a little on earlier predictions of severe flooding because the snow melt has been slower than expected.      PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
