I was perusing the pictures on Wunderground and came across these sad pictures by a guy named AlaskaMark.
He's recorded the aftermath of an ice jam flood destroying the Village of Eagle, Alaska, by the Yukon River in March of this year.
The river rose 34 feet and slammed the village with huge ice floes. It also flooded the City of Eagle just to the west of the village.
Nobody wading in that cold water trying to salvage belongings
The village's only store, only restaurant and most of the other buildings appear to be a total loss.
Alaska, in March, is not someplace you want to be forced out of your home. Hopefully everyone is safe.
There are two sets of pictures,
