== Special Conditions ==
 
−
As of June, 2008 the Cedar River and much of the surrounding area is flooded. Please check road conditions with the [http://www.511ia.org/ Iowa DOT]. If today's location is under floodwater, it probably won't be much fun to geohash there, so please try to find an alternate (preferably dry) location.
