99th Anniversary of Cloudburst in Louisville

"Wild Weather Wednesday: Greatest Calamity in History of Louisville – 1923 Flood Kills Twelve"

The Burlington Railroad Track after the "Cloud Burst" on Sept. 28, 1923, Louisville, Nebraska

In 1923, Louisville, Nebraska, was having a wild weather summer. In late August, the town survived a “baby Twister” that “wreaked its vengeance in one part of town and a block distant no damage was done” (The Courier, Aug. 31, 1923). The town’s paper, The Louisville Courier, reported: “The band stand at the baseball grounds was wrecked and loose boards flew about promiscuously, yet strange to relate no one was injured” (Aug. 31, 1923).

NATIONAL BLOOD CRISIS!
Worst Blood Shortage in Over a Decade!

The American Red Cross is facing a national blood crisis – its worst blood shortage in over a decade, posing a concerning risk to patient care. Doctors have been forced to make difficult decisions about who receives blood transfusions and who will need to wait until more products become available. Blood and platelet donations are critically needed to help prevent further delays in vital medical treatments. Please schedule your blood donation today.
