      I have not heard this, but I can not say its not true, we did just get another 500 troops in and now south dakota is sending up 250 more to us.

        yes

        I was just down to Osgood and the drain down there is just at the top of its banks and there is a solid 3' of sandbags or Hesco Barriers along it yet.

          Well that sounds good too. Just relaying what he was told. I hope you are right!

                well if no levees were in place you'd probably have water in the streets. I just don't forsee anything getting out of that drain down there and we're not going to get anything from the East. West Fargo sounds fine too - although if the diversion did spill it'd go west anyway.

                I'm supposedly higher here and was to be dry at 41'.

                  I moved stuff up and/or out of my basements, but I'm not going any further until the storm drains actually start spewing out backed up water.

                        Looks like my lead might happen? I mean if they are gonna close the interstate then the only thing it could be used for is evac

                            Well, it just closed from Jamestown to Fargo. Foreshadowing anyone?

                              i have lots of pictures from the past few days from when i had time to take them. , i hope to post them soon. I thought it was odd to see SD HP Blocking i-94 I know there is Mutual aid and all but interstate Mutual aid this far from the border makes you think something big is going on. I have seen 3 news helicopters and a guard/army blackhawk and a dolphin helicopter in the air today! it's getting unnerving wondering whats going on.

                              Update: Listening to the scanner, sounds like they are closing the tri-level. and i-94 east is CLOSED for mutual aid ambulances. I dont know about west but the hp is blocking the westbound ramps too.

                                I just received a call from my minnesota gaurd friend. He told me that if he gets called up we may be in trouble. He just got called in.

                                Just passing on the info.

                                          wtf? Why did they close it in the first place then? I think they have an evil plan to blow up the interstate to funnel the water west! Oh it is so brilliant!
