    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.

                          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.

                                        I think that its starting its peak.

                                        In stead of 2 tenths a foot per hour, its now down to like in the one hundredths of a foot range per hour. I'd be surprised if it hit anywhere above 42
