With flooding soaking and washing through the Dakotas, iReporters are giving us a view from the ground.
KJohnston came all the way from Minneapolis, Minnesota, to help his parents out in the Rose Creek neighborhood of Fargo, North Dakota. He has been shooting video of relief efforts as they happen, from sandbagging to fortification of blocks against the water. Students at North Dakota State University are within walking distance of the floodwaters, and campus resident assistant TylerSpecht says students are working around the clock to help with sandbagging and relief. Both iReporters were highlighted on CNN's “Situation Room.”
We also spoke to Ernest Feland , a former Bobcat company photographer who recalls sandbagging in the 1997 flooding. The Fargo resident says he is impressed with how people have mobilized themselves yet again. He sent remarkably clear photographs of the snowy, muddy struggles to stave off the flooding. Feland's story, as well as that of TylerSpecht, was incorporated into a CNN.com story .
We're impressed with the great stories you are sharing. If you're out there, send us your photos and video and post your comments below. We'd love to hear your perspective from the field .
