BULLETIN
The South Skunk River and its tributaries are flooding the area following heavy rains, so stay alert if you're near waterways. It's a pleasant day weather-wise with mostly clear skies and a high near 64°F, perfect timing for the Ottumwa Stars and Strides 5k that drew a good crowd during the city's Patriots Week celebration. If you're out and about, keep an eye out for lost dogs—the Heartland Humane is reporting a spike in missing pets around the Fourth of July and fireworks season.
