Grand Forks Part II
-
I am packed and ready to go. I do not plan on leaving fargo unless they force me. We have pumps and generators at my rents place ready to go. I moved all my basement stuff as i live right across from meritcare... My main floor will be fine, but the basement will be full if something happens.
This is getting rediculous. I know we have a lot more troops coming in. We are gonna have like 1700 here. There is about 900 now.

Was both from my understanding now too

I have been trying to follow this the best I can.
Don't Joel's parents live in that riverview area? If so, has anyone heard how they are doing over there. I seen his posts from last night about giving up, then starting the pumps back up again and staying on it.

I stopped at joels place last night but he was moving things out of the house and wasn't there. The water is very high on the house. That dike is a doosy.

Joel's house is safe. I just spoke with him on the phone about a half hour ago. His neighbor's dike failed and they are pulling sandbags and slowly letting it fill to the contingency dike in the street. Joel and his dad sandbagged around their house so they are protected from the neighbor. They are basically playing the waiting game now.

I'm sure they were testing how long it would take to completely clear it and reroute it. Theres no reason they closed it for as short as they did, only to reopen it. If we evac, it will be both sides of the road.
