Yes, I have a question. I would like to evacuate to Drayton from Ground Forks and I want to
know what roads to take.
Okay, I don't have that information. The EOC that would have it is, their lines, they had
to move and so their phone lines aren't hooked up yet and so they're rolling over to our
lines. We're in the law enforcement center. But they've wrapped here like 45 minutes ago
and they've been working hard to get the lines up so we're hoping within the next 15 to 20
minutes and if you could wait that line and give them a call. Otherwise, I really don't
know what to tell you. I've heard that Highway 2 is fine but that was like an hour ago.
Oh, okay. Yeah, on the 18 I suppose.
Yeah, that's all I've heard so I don't know if you want to try it or if you want to wait
and call back. They'd have more information.
Are there, you know, if there's any people out there that may have the road blocked off?
Not that I know of. I know the base is accepting people. They're leaving Ground Forks for
shelter. So if you wanted to head out there, that would be another option.
Yep, okay.
Alright.
Thanks.
