The Rising Red

Here are pictures from yestersay and today. I tried to take the same shots so it would give you a good perspective on how much the water has come up. We received good news today. The Red 40 miles south of here has crested one to two feet lower than expected. Which could mean the difference from beating and not beating the flood here. Fargo needed to make at least 300,00 sandbags a day to beat the river. Yesterday, Fargo had 10,00 volunteers step up and made 450,000 sandbags in one day. There are now volunteers coming in from all over North Dakota and Minnesota to help the fight.
