The Mississippi River remained in flood through the month of May along the border of Marion and Pike counties. The river started at major flood levels, dropped to minor flooding by the middle of the month, but then rose to major levels again at the end of May. The flood wall in Hannibal kelp the major tourist areas in the city nice and dry. Damage was limited to some closed roads and flooded farmland.
