NO AUDIO. A graphic report of the drenching of a wide section of central Nebraska by belated mid-summer torrents that unleashed 12 inches of rain in the region in one day. Damage in the millions by pelting rain and the floods that followed. MS A flooded Nebraska street that looks more like a river. Flooded corn field, two young boys taking advantage of the flood waters and having fun. Small crowd of people standing at the edge of a road, the rest of the road was washed away. Man standing on the opposite side of the washed away road. He leans on a guardrail with rushing water traveling below and beside him. Aerials of flooded rural areas including farmland and streams that became rivers. Overflowed stream where the water reaches the bottom of a walking bridge. Streets and yards that have become instant lakes.
