The Flood Today

No pictures today. The flood in Fargo has pretty much subsided. We are expecting another crest by friday. This time they have lowered it to 37 feet. Our first crest was 40.8 feet.
60 mioles west of us it is a whole different disaster. In Valley City they are expecting a crest 2 feet higher than the Sheyenne River has ever been there. Valley City officials have asked almost half of the town to evacuate.
The Sheyenne River is said to be 10 miles wide at places. There is alot of overland flooding going on.
