High water on the Mississippi
|
In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field. |
This is the view of the St. Louis riverfront, looking south from the Eads Bridge back on July 3. Flood stage at St. Louis is 30 feet, and the Mississippi River has been running anywhere from 1 to 5 feet above that for several weeks, at times submerging Leonor K. Sullivan Boulevard (the street below the Arch). Here the road is about 2 feet under water.

The Mississippi crested at 49.6 feet in St. Louis during the 1993 flood. That's almost 20 feet higher than where the river is in this photo.
