[edit] Point of article

I'm not sure what the point of this article is. Why don't you consider the subject sufficiently covered by the articles you refer to? --SarekOfVulcan 20:50, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

It was done to limit the size of the second article. It was split off from the 1901-2000 article. It has been done this way for other types of weather-related lists/articles, so this isn't setting any precedent. Thegreatdr 20:59, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Ah, I see. Sorry, I wasn't familiar with the other articles.--SarekOfVulcan 14:34, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2008 Flooding of Meramec River (proposal for new listing)

Is this worth mentioning? I don't have all the details put together yet, but given that this was caused by episodes including 10+" of rain, affected several counties in Missouri, affected some of the same areas as in the Great Flood of 1993, water was 20 feet over flood stage at some locations, etc. Anyway, just wanted to get some opinions, thanks --Umrguy42 (talk) 00:18, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
