Photos from the historic flood of 2009. The first crest was at 40.82. There are photos here of building a dike on 2nd st, and some from the Moorhead Center Mall after the first crest subsided and the river was down to about 35'.
These are some photos I got of the Fargo Flood of '97. It was one of the worst floods in history. Fargo survived it, but further up the river, this flood took out most of Grand Forks. I probably could have got pictures of more dramatic flooding, but in places like that, I left my camera at home and picked up sand bags.
