This article has entirely too many pictures. Their abundance, and placement, screws up the page formatting. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 02:44, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

Major Flood Events

edit

Two major flooding events, one caused by the Red River and the other caused by excessive localized rain occurred in 2015 and 2016 respectively. They caused millions of dollars in property damage. A section on either these or natural disasters in general would help flesh the article out. BGoldwater (talk) 03:49, 25 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
