NORTHFIELD, Minn. – Melting snow is feeding the Cannon River in Northfield, and triggering the first flood warning of the year in Minnesota.

Northfield is already seeing some standing water, and the Cannon River – which runs right through downtown – is expected to crest sometime Wednesday afternoon.

"Seeing a huge log sitting in it is a little unusual," said Andy Sibenaller, as he checked out the raging river after work.
