A flood warning continues along the Mississippi River from the Iowa border to Saint Louis.

  
Rain and snowmelt have swelled the river and its tributaries.
Authorities warn drivers not to try to cross water-logged roads.

  
The river level at Louisiana on Tuesday was more than a foot above flood
stage, with a rise of another two feet expected before the crest on
Thursday or Friday. At Clarksville, the river
was almost a foot-and-a-half above flood stage, with another
foot-and-a-half expected before the crest.

    At Winfield, the river hadn’t reached flood stage, but was expected to on Wednesday.
