On August 9, 2025, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, @onenonly.lexxi shared a video of severe flooding at the Wisconsin State Fair. In the video, the author walks through floodwaters as heavy rain inundates the fairgrounds and flash flooding sweeps through the area, dropping 8 to 11 inches of rain. The deluge caused the Milwaukee River to crest at a record 11.19 feet. Floodwaters closed roads, stranded vehicles, and forced dozens of water rescues, leading to the cancellation of the fair’s final day and prompting Milwaukee County to declare a state of emergency.
