Bakken Flooding
Bakken flooding: from The Williston Herald --
Missouri River levels continue to run high, with snow melt from Montana pushing its way down the Yellowstone, and the river is walking its way out of its banks in several locations. Farm fields have been flooded, and even a parked vehicle or two has been caught unaware by the rising water levels.
The river level Friday afternoon at the Lewis and Clark Bridge was 24.47 feet, and was expected to gradually climb to 25.1 feet by early next week. Flood stage is 22 feet.
A bit later than usual? Great fishing! Great boating!The rise is mainly due to mountain snowpack in Montana, rather than rain, according to meteorologists. Todd Hamilton is with the National Weather Service in Bismarck.
