Yes it causes floods every year when the spring rains and melting snow increase the volume of water in the river. Some floods are contained by the dam and levee system, and some are more severe.
Yes, every year the volume of water increases in the spring, so that some areas along the river flood. There was considerable flooding in May, 2011. The last major flood was in the summer of 1993, when the Missouri River also experienced severe flooding. Before that, a more disastrous flood occurred in 1927. The damage can spread far from the river, because when the water is high, the many tributary rivers will back up and flood as well, and they do not have the extensive levees that the Mississippi has.
The effectiveness of flood controls on the Mississippi river was tested once again during the flood of 1993. An unusual weather pattern during the late summer of 1993 resulted in soaking rains in the northern Mississippi river valley. Some areas received over 30 inches of rain during the summer 200% more than usual. With high soil moisture levels and a large 1992 snow pack, much of the rain drained directly into the Mississippi river, resulting in a tremendous flood. The states of Minnesota Iowa, Illinois and Missouri were the hardest hit . The river height at st. Louis, Missouri was over 50 feet above the flood stage for over 100 days. Water from the flood covered over 17,000 square miles of normally dry land. The flood destroyed over 80% of levees in the upper Mississippi river.it also destroyed 50,000 homes and displaced 70,000 people 52 flood - related deaths occurred. The final estimate was 15- 20 billion dollars

The Great Flood of 1993 was a major flood that occurred in the American Midwest, along the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers, and their tributaries, from April to October of 1993. The flood was among the most costly, and devastating to have occurred in the United States, with $15 billion in damages. It was the worst such U.S. disaster since the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927, as measured by duration, square miles inundated, persons displaced, crop and property damage, and number of record river levels. In some categories, it surpassed even the 1927 flood. Areas affected : Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
