Much of the problems for North Dakotaians stem from the Province of Saskatchewan in Canada dealing with excessive rain during the Spring. They have had to open the dams to release some of the extra water which has caused flooding for N. Dakota similar to what happened in the States. Honestly the real culprit is excessive carbon emissions in the atmosphere causing Global changes and Global warming. Something has to be done to help ease the environment.
See the article below...
'Flood emergencies declared in 26 Sask. communities'
...'Following weeks of rain, hundreds of people in the southeast part of the province have been displaced from their homes — for a few days in some cases, but for longer in others. ...'
