Waukesha County, WI Flooding – 9/5/2018

Several days of heavy rains from the end of August to the beginning of September have led to several area lakes and rivers overflowing their banks all across the Midwest. Levels are so high on Upper and Lower Nemahbin Lake that a slow no wake ordinance is now in effect for both lakes. Local businesses are also feeling the effect from the heavy rain as Upper Nemahbin Lake begins to flood nearby parking lots.
