Floodwaters in Indianapolis buried cars and covered streets this morning. The Plains States and Midwest have been pounded with severe weather and strong storms for more than three days. In Andrew County, Missouri, residents are cleaning up after flooding Friday. Several counties reported flash flooding, blocking roads and uprooted trees.
