          Rising super slow.

          Wait for tomorrow when it warms up and the snow up there starts to melt.

                After a low of 1 tonight and a high of 26 tomorrow via NWS...doubt itll melt much.

                            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.

                              They did a dry run with shutting down the interstate from Jamestown today. 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.

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

                                          Oh a friend of mine heard from a guy that heard his mailman say that the City knows the dikes are going to fail and they just don't want people to panic.
