    I know last night they weren't planning on it, but that could and probably will change?

    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

        guess they decided not to raise the bags another foot down south here. just gonna re-enforce the weak / low spots and have the guard partroling the dikes 24/7. so if it does get to 43 were basically ****ed thats if the sandbags hold till then. just picked up 2 pumps. our neighbor has 6 for some reason.

          structurally they cant raise the dikes anymore. it wont do any good. the ideal way to build the dike is to have the base 3-4 times wider than it is high. I as long as the dikes hold, we will be ok. I am starting to become more optimistic.

                I just got to work and (go figure) it was dead so they told me to come back later. Fuck that. I'm going to call Ed Schultz and have him bitch out our DM for keeping us open. Dude's been on a warpath with any businesses that are staying open after both the governor and the mayor said that any non-essential businesses should be closed.

                              hey does anyone know if the people that have evacuated futher east like cities area, ie:me,wife and kids.Does anyone know if it will be dificult for us to back into fargo IF nothing ends up happening? my boss figures that it will take atleast a week before we can get back into town...if anyone can clear that up that would be great.

                              Also my aunt from glendale,arizona is having a big pray service at her church this weekend for everyone in fargo as well as praying everyday for everyone as well...just thought i would let you all know

                                Just a bit of info for those in Moorhead. KFGO just had a conversation that says Minnesota law DOES NOT allow for mandatory evacuations. I don't know (nor did they) if they will use the word MANDATORY or not, but keep in mind, that if they say get out, you might not hear the M word, but should STILL get out....

                                Best of luck to those on the other side of the river. Be smart and safe! 😞

                                        Also when I went on shift last night at 11, we got the sandbag report. 2.7 million filled, 2.2 million being used, the rest were for back up. But they wanted more. so not sure how sandbag central did last night, since I wasnt there.

                                          FLOOD UPDATE: Fargo, Moorhead schools closed next week, other districts to likely follow suit
                                          Moorhead Public Schools will close schools all next week. Fargo Public Schools expects to cancel school all next week, too, and other area school districts speculate they'll follow suit.
