I have 30 yards of sand in my driveway.We called on sandbags today and were pretty much told that the big rich houses in south fargo are priority #1 so we will be put on the list and we will be getting our sandbags some time next week. Boy it'll sure help to have all the sandbags show up after we are under water.
I picked up 3,000 bags from Cass County today. When I was in there I heard them on the phone with somebody from the north side. They told them they weren't giving them out until tomorrow. I have an extra 1,000 right now. You can have them if they don't give you any tomorrow and get them back to me when you get yours.

You do realize that most of the people posting are not anywhere CLOSE to being on the river, and that we're talking about the whole city flooding...Anyway, moving isn't an option for most people... Lol classic bubba
Exactly. My mother lives on the edge of the 500yr flood plain, in the middle of Moorhead. You realize this has the potential to be the biggest flood since the founding of the area right? This isn't just an average flood. Most of us can deal with 30-35' without any issues, especially on the Moorhead side of the river.

were protected at 41 ft. The city of Moorhead is calling for 1 continuous dike from Horn Park(Under I94 Bridge) to 40th Ave. @40 Ft.
We filled around 25,000 sandbags at Sand Station 11 across the street from my house. My neighbor needs help BAD, so if anyone wants to come to Station 11 (37th Ave S & Riverview Circle) we Will be going from 8am to 8pm.
