Right now, we're sitting and waiting. Flood waters are expected to peak this afternoon at 37.5 feet. That's only 2.1 feet below the 1997 flood level. They're saying the worst flooding is occurring around Fargo and at the Red River in Fargo-Moorhead. There's no danger of the city being inundated like Grand Forks was in 1997, but there's a situation going on with homes and a couple of businesses by the river. The news said close to 1,000 people in F-M living within 100 feet of the flooding could be affected. I'm about 3 miles from the river, so I'm safe.
