Additional rounds of rain fell over Iowa with flooding occurring in southern Iowa on the Chariton River. The Chariton river floods quite easily, and thus the flooding was relatively minor and limited to agricultural lands for the most part. Some minor flooding took place along the Skunk River in central Iowa and the Cedar River in northeast Iowa as well.
