Yes, could you tell me if the 1500 block in Oak Street is on the voluntary evacuation
list?
The whole city is on the voluntary evacuation list.
Whole city?
Yep.
Are we in that 100 year?
I have no idea.
They just told us that it's a voluntary evacuation in the whole city and they're recommending
if people have some place to go outside the city that they should go because they don't
know what the river is going to do overnight.
Okay, thank you.
Yep, bye bye.
So you don't have to evacuate or what?
You do not have to.
Thanks, how are they?
Can they help you?
Okay, are we?
I think I'm in a safe area right now.
I don't want to wake up my mom.
She's with Red Cross.
She's been working for a month straight.
Are we supposed to report to somebody where we're at and the number where we can be reached
in case people are trying to reach us or?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Are we supposed to report to somebody where we're at and the number where we can be reached
in case people are trying to reach us or?
I don't have the answer to that right now.
The EOC is trying to get their phone line to back up.
Okay.
And we're getting their rollover.
If you just call us and say the number back in about half an hour, hopefully they'll be
up.
Okay, thank you very much.
Bye bye.
