| Episode Narrative |
As the Red Lake River in Crookston was nearing its late March crest, an ice jam formed. This caused the Red Lake River to back up in town, inundating lower areas along the river. Local law enforcement initiated a voluntary evacuation in several neighborhoods along the river. |
