HALF OF THE SHEYENNE BASIN HAS EXPERIENCED LITTLE MELTING AND HAS

THE SECOND CREST PROJECTIONS AT THIS TIME INCLUDE SNOWMELT ONLY. 
ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION THAT DOES OCCUR WHILE THE RIVERS IN THE 
RED RIVER VALLEY ARE IN FLOOD WILL CAUSE INCREASES IN THE PROJECTED 
CREST FORECASTS.

THE TABLES BELOW ARE A FORECAST FOR A 7 DAY PERIOD...THE HIGHEST STAGE INDICATED MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE 
UPDATED DAILY AND STAGE VALUES WILL CHANGE AS NEW WEATHER AND RIVER

THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

SAFETY MESSAGES...TURN AROUND, DONT DROWN...

DAKOTA...

  THIS IS A EXTENSION TO THE CURRENT WARNINGS FOR...
   THE GOOSE RIVER AT HILLSBORO AFFECTING TRAILL COUNTY
   THE FOREST RIVER AT MINTO AFFECTING WALSH COUNTY

  THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP STATEMENT TO THE CURRENT WARNINGS FOR...
   THE WILD RICE RIVER (ND) AT ABERCROMBIE AFFECTING RICHLAND COUNTY

   THE PEMBINA RIVER AT NECHE AFFECTING PEMBINA COUNTY
   THE PEMBINA RIVER AT WALHALLA AFFECTING PEMBINA AND CAVALIER 
COUNTIES

.THE NORTH DAKOTA TRIBUTARIES OF THE RED RIVER CONTINUE TO RISE DUE TO 
SNOWMELT RUNOFF MAKING ITS WAY INTO THE RIVER SYSTEM. EXPECT OVERNIGHT LOWS AT OR ABOVE FREEZING IN MOST PLACES FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. 
THIS WILL ALLOW FOR CONTINUOUS MELTING 24 HOURS A DAY AND ACCELERATE 
THE CURRENT RUNOFF. 

RECORD FLOODING IS FORECAST ALONG THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT VALLEY CITY...
LISBON AND HARWOOD...AND ALONG THE MAPLE RIVER AT MAPLETON. THE UPPER 
HALF OF THE SHEYENNE BASIN HAS EXPERIENCED LITTLE MELTING AND HAS 
EXTREMELY HIGH SNOW WATER EQUIVALENTS IN THE SNOWPACK...WHICH DATES 
BACK TO THE EARLY NOVEMBER SNOW STORM. ONCE THE SNOWMELT RUNOFF IS 
ABLE TO MAKE ITS WAY INTO THE SYSTEM THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...THE RIVER 
LEVELS WILL RISE QUICKLY.

THE FORECAST RIVER LEVELS DO NOT INCLUDE ANY PRECIPITATION DUE TO 
THE LACK OF SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION IN THE FORECAST THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
THE SECOND CREST PROJECTIONS AT THIS TIME INCLUDE SNOWMELT ONLY. 
ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION THAT DOES OCCUR WHILE THE RIVERS IN THE 
RED RIVER VALLEY ARE IN FLOOD WILL CAUSE INCREASES IN THE PROJECTED 
CREST FORECASTS.

THIS FORECAST IS FOR A 7 DAY PERIOD...THE HIGHEST STAGE INDICATED 
MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE 
UPDATED DAILY AND STAGE VALUES WILL CHANGE AS NEW WEATHER AND 
RIVER INFORMATION IS USED. THIS FORECAST INCLUDES ANY 
PRECIPITATION THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

SAFETY MESSAGES...TURN AROUND, DONT DROWN... 
 
 - DONT TRAVEL THROUGH FLOODED AREAS

 - CONTACT LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT TO REPORT FLOODING.

 - PERSONS LIVING IN THE RED RIVER BASIN SHOULD MONITOR RIVER 
   LEVELS WHILE THE RIVER IS IN...OR NEAR...FLOOD.

FOR MORE INFORMATION...GO TO THE AHPS/RIVER SECTION 
ON OUR WEB PAGE AT:      WWW.WEATHER.GOV/GRANDFORKS

THE FOLLOWING SEGMENTS CONTAIN RIVER INFORMATION FOR 
THE SELECTED LOCATIONS INCLUDED IN THIS MESSAGE.

THIS FORECAST DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR ICE JAMS THAT CAN

.THE NORTH DAKOTA TRIBUTARIES OF THE RED RIVER CONTINUE TO RISE DUE TO 
SNOWMELT RUNOFF MAKING ITS WAY INTO THE RIVER SYSTEM. EXPECT OVERNIGHT
LOWS AT OR ABOVE FREEZING IN MOST PLACES FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. 
THIS WILL ALLOW FOR CONTINUOUS MELTING 24 HOURS A DAY AND ACCELERATE 
THE CURRENT RUNOFF. 

RECORD FLOODING IS FORECAST ALONG THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT VALLEY CITY...
LISBON AND HARWOOD. THE UPPER HALF OF THE SHEYENNE BASIN HAS
EXPERIENCED LITTLE MELTING AND HAS EXTREMELY HIGH SNOW WATER
EQUIVALENTS IN THE SNOWPACK...WHICH DATES BACK TO THE EARLY NOVEMBER
SNOW STORM. ONCE THE SNOWMELT RUNOFF IS ABLE TO MAKE ITS WAY INTO
THE SYSTEM THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...THE RIVER LEVELS WILL RISE QUICKLY.

THE FORECAST RIVER LEVELS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY
IMPACTED BY AT THIS TIME DUE TO LIMITED PRECIPITATION IN THE NEXT
24 HOURS. THE SECOND CREST PROJECTIONS AT THIS TIME ARE PRIMARILY
DUE TO SNOW MELT. ANY SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION THAT DOES OCCUR WHILE
THE RIVERS IN THE RED RIVER VALLEY ARE IN FLOOD WILL CAUSE INCREASES
IN THE PROJECTED CREST FORECASTS.

THIS FORECAST IS FOR A 7 DAY PERIOD...THE HIGHEST STAGE INDICATED 
MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE 
UPDATED DAILY AND STAGE VALUES WILL CHANGE AS NEW WEATHER AND 
RIVER INFORMATION IS USED. THIS FORECAST INCLUDES ANY 
PRECIPITATION THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

SAFETY MESSAGES...TURN AROUND, DONT DROWN... 
 
 - DONT TRAVEL THROUGH FLOODED AREAS

 - CONTACT LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT TO REPORT FLOODING.

 - PERSONS LIVING IN THE RED RIVER BASIN SHOULD MONITOR RIVER 
   LEVELS WHILE THE RIVER IS IN...OR NEAR...FLOOD.

LISBON AND HARWOOD. THE UPPER HALF OF THE SHEYENNE BASIN HAS
EXPERIENCED LITTLE MELTING AND HAS EXTREMELY HIGH SNOW WATER

IMPACTED DUE TO PRECIPITATION IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS...WITH THE SECOND 
CREST PROJECTIONS PRIMARILY DUE TO SNOW MELT AT THIS TIME. ANY 
SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION THAT DOES OCCUR WHILE THE RIVERS IN THE 
RED RIVER VALLEY ARE IN FLOOD WILL CAUSE INCREASES IN THE PROJECTED

MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE 
UPDATED DAILY AND STAGE VALUES WILL CHANGE AS NEW WEATHER AND

LISBON AND HARWOOD. THE SHEYENNE RIVER AND DEVILS LAKE BASINS HAVE 
RECEIVED ONE QUARTER TO ONE HALF INCH OF RAIN LAST NIGHT. THIS RAIN 
WATER WILL COUPLE WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE SNOWMELT RUNOFF TO CAUSE 
ADDITIONAL RISES IN MANY OF THE NORTH DAKOTA TRIBUTARIES OVER THE NEXT 
SEVERAL DAYS.

THIS FORECAST IS FOR A 7 DAY PERIOD...THE HIGHEST STAGE INDICATED 
MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE

.RECORD FLOODING WILL CONTINUE FOR DAYS ON THE SHEYENNE RIVER FROM

BIT NOW THAT LOCAL RUNOFF HAS DIMINISHED...THEY WILL REMAIN IN
RECORD TERRITORY. DOWNSTREAM...BREAKOUT FLOWS IN THE KINDRED AREA 
WILL CONTINUE...AND MAY INCREASE IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS THE INITIAL 
CREST OF WATER FROM SNOW MELT THAT WAS AT LISBON MAKES ITS WAY
DOWNSTREAM. 

FLOODING WILL ALSO CONTINUE ON OTHER TRIBUTARIES TO THE RED RIVER 
OVER EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA. HOWEVER...CRESTS HAVE OCCURRED AT MANY 
LOCATIONS AND WATER LEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO FALL. THE EXCEPTIONS

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA/GRAND FORKS ND
1101 AM CDT FRI APR 17 2009

...THE FLOOD WARNING CONTINUES FOR THE FOLLOWING RIVERS IN NORTH 
DAKOTA...

  THIS IS A EXTENSION TO THE CURRENT WARNINGS FOR...
   THE WILD RICE RIVER (ND) AT ABERCROMBIE AFFECTING RICHLAND COUNTY
   THE GOOSE RIVER AT HILLSBORO AFFECTING TRAILL COUNTY
   THE PARK RIVER AT GRAFTON AFFECTING WALSH COUNTY

  THIS IS A FOLLOW-UP STATEMENT TO THE CURRENT WARNINGS FOR...
   THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT HARWOOD AFFECTING CASS COUNTY
   THE SHEYENNE RIVER NEAR KINDRED AFFECTING CASS AND RICHLAND COUNTIES
   THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT LISBON AFFECTING RANSOM COUNTY
   THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT VALLEY CITY AFFECTING BARNES COUNTY
   THE SHEYENNE RIVER AT WEST FARGO DIVERSION AFFECTING CASS COUNTY

   THE PEMBINA RIVER AT NECHE AFFECTING PEMBINA COUNTY
   THE PEMBINA RIVER AT WALHALLA AFFECTING PEMBINA AND CAVALIER COUNTIES
 
.MANY NORTH DAKOTA RIVERS ARE STILL IN FLOOD. THE SHEYENNE RIVER CREST IS 
MOVING FROM LISBON TO KINDRED WITH HIGH FLOWS TO CONTINUE AT VALLEY CITY 
DUE TO THE DAM RELEASES FROM BALDHILL. THE RIVER LEVELS AT KINDRED ARE 
EXPECTED TO REMAIN THE SAME AS BREAKOUTS IN THE AREA WILL INCREASE AS 
THE PEAK FLOW MOVES INTO THE REGION. 

THE PEMBINA RIVER IS EXPECTED TO EXPERIENCE A SECOND RISE AS SNOWMELT 
RUNOFF IN SOUTHERN MANITOBA HAS ENTERED THE RIVER SYSTEM. AN EXPECTED 
CREST AT WINDY GATES GREATER THAN 2006 WILL MOVE INTO THE WALHALLA AREA
THIS WEEKEND AND CREST ON TUESDAY. THIS INCREASED FLOW WILL CAUSE 
ADDITIONAL BREAKOUTS NEAR NECHE RATHER THAN A RISE IN THE RIVER LEVEL. 

OTHER NORTH DAKOTA TRIBUTARIES TO THE RED RIVER CONTINUE TO RECEDE.
ANOTHER EXCEPTION IS THE MAPLE RIVER AT MAPLETON WHERE THE CREST FROM 
RELEASES AT THE MAPLE DAM WILL CONTINUE TO CAUSE THE RIVER TO RISE SLIGHTLY
UNTIL BEGINNING TO FALL ON SUNDAY. 

THIS FORECAST IS FOR A 7 DAY PERIOD...THE HIGHEST STAGE INDICATED 
MAY NOT REFLECT THE CREST FOR THIS FLOOD EVENT. FORECASTS ARE 
UPDATED DAILY AND STAGE VALUES WILL CHANGE AS NEW WEATHER AND 
RIVER INFORMATION IS USED. THIS FORECAST INCLUDES ANY 
PRECIPITATION THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
