Flooding continues to be a major concern for people in Central Illinois and throughout the Midwest.

The American Red Cross encourages anyone in need of a safe place to stay to go to First Baptist Church of 411 West Lake Avenue in Peoria, IL.

Anyone who goes to the shelter is asked to bring bedding, clothing, medications, and a favorite toy for any kids who will be there.

But only grab these items if there is time to safely get them.
