Yeah, this is Brian at First Bank Security. How you doing?
Hi.
How's everything going down there?
Terrible. What's your needs?
My parents live in the Walnut Street area.
Where about?
The 700 block.
Okay.
They're starting to get water in that area.
Are they really?
Yeah. At this point I guess I would do a voluntary evacuation with them.
Okay.
And at this point I would say try and move them out of the city.
Okay. How about one other area? My in-laws live on 2211 8th Avenue North.
Ah. I'm not sure of that area. I don't think that has gotten.
Although the Cooley, there are some problems out there with Cooley.
They may ask for a voluntary evacuation of the whole city.
Really?
Yep.
And they were thinking about coming back tomorrow.
They're in Minneapolis right now, but they were going to try to make their way back to Grand Forks.
Is that not advised?
No, I would not advise it.
I couldn't even tell them when all is going to be up. We've lost a lot of our dikes already.
Okay.
Okay.
All right. Bye-bye.
