Flash flood inundated Bull Creek Village

Flash flooding damaged an entire mobile home park here along Highway F northeast of Branson. The water receded by Monday morning but residents said it was the worst they’ve experienced.
At one home, water was about five feet deep. The family says, even during the flood of 2015, water didn't get up inside the house as it did this time. The floor is soaked as they try to salvage furniture and items inside.
The flood damage looks like tornado damage. The power of the water crushed metal on these homes and tore apart wooden decks and handrails.
One man says they get asked a lot, "Why don't you just move?" He says it's not that easy. They say it's hard to sell property in a flood prone area, so they're more or less stuck here, praying that the flooding doesn't damage their homes too much.
For now, the homeowners say it's unclear whether they'll receive Federal Emergency Management Agency funding to repair and rebuild. They'll have to wait to find out.
Bull Creek, which feeds into Lake Taneycomo, caused the flash flooding. The water went down almost as quickly as it rose on Sunday. Now the cleanup begins.
