Grand Forks Part II
-
They (crates) showed up today about 1:00 pm. Slow going for the first 100'. Had to place all material with the mini-ex. The tracked skidsteer couldn't make it up the hill. Tomorrow we have about 170' to go. Should take 1/2 day to finish.
Were going to put a couple rows on top where needed. Should be good to about 42.5' can still go higher if needed.

well we have about 430k sandbags filled now. But we now need 2.5 million for the city of fargo. We need as many volunteers as possible. Just park at the fargo dome and a bus will take you to sandbag central. Even the cass county jail inmates are there filling sandbags.
We are now suppose to crest at 42.5 feet. The salvation army is still giving out free food, water and gatorade.

i havent heard 42.5 cause thats fuckville
ive heard anywhere from 37-41 hopefully the temps drop below 32 and it slows the melting process down a lot

we havent even started setting up any sandbags yet really. we have delivered some to some of the residential neighborhoods for them to set up but the majority of our bags are still sitting in the parking lot. I dont know exactly when we will start putting them up. Maybe tuesday?

Hopefully the temp cool down this week will slow down the melting.

well both our sumps failed due to a frozen pipe, and our basement got water maybe a half inch or so, but still sucks.
