MANKATO, Minn. (KEYC) - The city of Madelia is hopeful that their flooding will be gone before any major damage is done.

City officials say flooding from the Watonwan River has closed down the city’s park system, campground, golf course and compost site... but add that the water has level dropped by over a foot in the last 24 hours. They expect all facilities to be fully operational by Memorial Day weekend.
