Red River Valley Fargo Flood 2009




Title:
Red River Valley Fargo Flood 2009

Description:
Red River Valley Flood 2009. Over half of the volunteers were not known by the family. They showed up just by word of mouth that someone needed help. This family was protecting themselves against the Sheyenne river. It was awesome! Mark Proulx wrote this song in 2008 and it seems fitting.

Fargo Flood 2009

This year crest was 40.82 feet which was below predicted ... GREAT! Water will remain above 38 feet for a stinking week which will put stress on dikes and all. Is it time to move?

Sandbagging continues in the fargodome, as Mayor Walaker asks for 500000 more sandbags. Strength, endurance and hope to all the volunteer heroes who continue to monitor the dikes and continue working together with national and state officials and the National Guard.
