Areal Flood Advisory
Statement as of 12:58 PM CDT on June 29, 2009


The National Weather Service in Grand Forks has issued a

* flood advisory for flooding along Devils Lake and Stump
Lake in...
eastern Benson County in northeast North Dakota... west central
Nelson County in northeast North Dakota... southern Ramsey County
in northeast North Dakota...

* until 300 PM CDT... Monday, July 6th.

* Homes... dikes... roads... and utility infrastructures near the
Devils Lake and Stump Lake shorelines will be adversely
affected by High Lake levels throughout the Spring and Summer
months.

* Residents and visitors should use extreme caution when they are
near the Lake Shores... especially during windy weather.

* Due to recent lake level rises to above historical record
levels... devils and Stump Lakes are experiencing flooding along
their shorelines. During windy weather... the possibility for
severe bank erosion will be increased.

* Lake levels which rise due to Spring runoff typically stabilize in
the mid-Summer when evaporation tends to exceed inflows... and
then recede a bit in the autumn when Summer rains taper off.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A flood advisory is issued for a specific community or an area along
a river where flooding has been forecast... is imminent... or is in
progress and is a threat to life and property.

Turn around dont drown. Avoid driving on flooded roads. Most flood
related deaths occur in automobiles.

The flood advisory will remain in effect until the water has receded
and the flooding is no longer a hazard.
