A YouTube video recorded late Wednesday afternoon from an elevated position just north of Demers Avenue in Grand Forks offers views of the Red River floodwaters covering both ends of the closed Sorlie Bridge and the flood walls, temporary and permanent, near the bridge.
The video captures the breezy conditions of the day, with a music backdrop of Mason Jennings singing the first portion of his song "Dakota." The video lasts slightly more than a minute.
