I assume he's suffering from the rising water...

Not this Jay.
But I can sure sympathize with what Fargo is going through right now.

The river flows north... and no mention of what is happening in Grand Forks.
Years ago during the flood, the down town area caught fire.. no one could get in to fight it. The city burned from the 2nd floors up, the flood receded and the first floors of the downtown buildings remained. BT "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:rlhzl.630737$yE1.149271@attbi_s21...

Which is why the buildings should be built on stilts.
Winnipeg has a clever solution where they let the river run out away from town when this happens, intentionally flooding some farm land. Problem is that the river is still frozen up north and the flow backs up. Wife from Grand Forks.
