haven't been on in a while and didn't feel like searching for an hour to find an answer. so, whats the outlook for flooding this year? i would make the assumption that it will be about as bad as last year with all of the snow we have. i live in SE ND. i have been hearing that there is a 5-8% chance that the sheyenne is going to go 6ft higher than last year. can anybody elaborate on this?

Here's an interesting tidbit from January13th.  They say the frost is not as deep which will help.  I guess we'll see what their new outlook has in store for us on Friday.

Ramifications for the spring 2010 flood season: We are, as of this writing, far better off in some respects than this time in the winter of 2009. The 2009 fall precipitation, while above normal, was much less than the fall of 2008. Frost depths have not been as deep as a year ago. Based on what we have in the river system, the southern Valley again seems most at risk for major flooding the spring of 2010. The AHPS  runs from January 4th 2010 have slightly increased the threat for major flooding. As is the case every spring, it will come down to future weather conditions, specifically [any] additional precipitation during the rest of the winter, precipitation at or near the time of spring snow melt, as well as the rate of melt.

Your NOAA's National Weather Service will closely monitor the evolving weather and climate patterns as we go through the rest of the winter season. For additional information, contact Mark Ewens at 701.772.0720x327 or Mark.Ewens@noaa.gov

according to the news, what hurt us last year was the march snow storm and the rain we had during the flood. as long as things stay as they are it shouldn't be as bad as last year. i think if you ask 100 people you might get 100 different opinions.
lets hope its not as bad as last year, as it is hard on people and business.
