The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is warning the Upper Mississippi River could be facing the highest flood levels in more than 20 years. The American Commercial Barge Line expects the locks from lock 3 at St. Paul to lock 7 in southern Iowa to be closed due to high water. The closure could last 12-to-15 days. The locks along the mid-Mississippi River may be closed from early-to-mid May.
