the flooding in Nebraska has badly damaged up to 500 houses in one county alone. Great London of the Sarpy County Sheriff's Office said Sunday that one levee broke Thursday along the Platte River and another broke Saturday. He estimates that up to 400 houses and cabins in the area known as Hansen's Lake, are damaged, including many that are completely submerged. Another 100 or so homes air damaged elsewhere in the county. The area is near where the Platte and Missouri rivers converge. A Missouri River levee nearby also breached on Thursday. London says many of the damaged homes are likely ruined. He says that while the area has had flooding before, this year's disaster is unprecedented.
