What the National Weather Service wrote

Significant rainfall throughout June pushed the Mississippi River at Lansing into flood stage in June and continued into July. The river stage crested during the early morning on July 5th in minor flood stage at 18.06 ft.

The wider storm

Heavy rainfall throughout June led to many locations along the Mississippi River in northeast Iowa to enter flood stage which persisted into July. During the first week of July many points along the Mississippi River observed their maximum river stage in minor to moderate flooding. As relatively drier conditions took hold through the first half of July, river stages fell below flood stage into the middle of the month.

Began near Lansing (43.3477, -91.1897).
