Flash Flood Watch
Statement as of 12:33 PM CDT on May 24, 2013

... Flash Flood Watch now in effect through Sunday afternoon...

The Flash Flood Watch is now in effect for

* a portion of northeast North Dakota... including the following
area... Pembina.

* Through Sunday afternoon

* water remains very high at the Renwick dam and is being held
back by a constructed earthen levee on top of the dam
structure. Officials continue to monitor the dam and the new
Clay levee for any erosion... although water levels continue to
fall within the dam and points upstream.

* At this time... officials note the temporary levee on top of
the Renwick dam appears to be stable and will be continually
monitored. However... the threat remains and failure would mean
major flooding would be imminent for the cities of Akra...
Cavalier... and Bathgate.

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.
