"Iowa to send Coast Guard to help Fargo"

This was in the CRG paper today. couldn't find it online.
Really brings up the question - why do we have a Coast Guard in Iowa? That water on our borders are rivers, IIRC

1. They must guard us against those evil Illinoisans

We can't have those Blago worshiping so and so's over here now can we? In actuality, I think they work with the corps of engineers to help out with lock and dam security, etc. And they hassle people when they are fishing. I talk from experience on this matter. The craft was clearly marked U.S. Coast Guard.

2. My guess was it had something to do with the coming climate change

Apparently, some are protecting you from Illinoisans (good idea, imo), some are protecting you from one another.
