Can you tell me if the University of North Dakota has been evacuated yet?
It has not been a mandatory evacuation yet, but I believe the mayor is asking for voluntary
evacuation in the city.
For the whole city?
Yeah, for people to voluntarily evacuate because people aren't staying too long in the areas
that are getting flooded and it's getting too hard to get them out.
Is there any flooding near the University of North Dakota?
There's a small clue that there is some overflow, but there isn't any major flooding as far
as I know at this time.
It's mostly by the Red River.
Thank you very much.
