Flooding has hit the Ankeny area hard overnight, with a business burning for 13 hours after floodwaters prevented crews from responding, and flood warnings now extended across the Des Moines region as creeks and rivers overflow. The Animal Rescue League is helping displaced pets and families, while I-35 overnight shutdowns will force traffic rerouting around the Ames-Ankeny corridor. Today looks brighter with mostly sunny skies and a high of 84°F, though patchy fog is expected early on.
