It's not over yet, the National Weather Service predicts a 75% chance the second crest will reach 41 feet and a 25% chance of going to 43 feet in mid April. Here is some photos showing what elements people are dealing with. Special thanks to our friends Kim & Ruth for these pictures.
The start of the spring melt....
Water keeps rising....
Reaching it's peak....
Almost to the bottom of the I94 bridge deck....
The fight didn't stop behind their home, the river came up the street to the front of the house....
Bus loads of students helped place sandbags before the river over came the neighborhood.
This is what the street looked like before the crest..
Bus loads arrive!
Water is starting to move in!
Water on both sides of the house!
To this point the damages have been controlled but some have lost their homes. To anyone that has lost their home the damages are great. We are still wining the fight and everyone is preparing to do whatever it takes to save the Fargo/Moorhead community!
