Thank You

by Andy on November 18, 2008

We want to thank our community for making IowaFlood.com such a success. If it wasn’t for you this website would have gone nowhere. Thank you for submitting content and telling people about our little site here. We hope that this website serves as a historical archive for the Iowa Flood of 2008. And if a similar disaster happens to the good people of Iowa we will be here to help.

Thanks,

Andy Brudtkuhl

Site Updates and Downtime

by Andy on June 12, 2008

Sorry for the intermittant service this morning. Our database kept crashing due to the high traffic load. We upgraded to a dedicated database solution … which did not help. In the end we had to buy additional hosting capacity, move the entire site and database over, and switch more things. Thanks to 48Web for flipping the bill and making all this possible.

The good news is we are back up and running … and we’re still here for you, so don’t worry.

Please keep sending us great content.

Stay Dry,
Andy
