A large part of Horace, North Dakota evacuated this morning. The town of 6,875 people was told by Mayor Mary Lee Nielson not to return because crews are still working.
Crews scrambling to fix a levee breach in North Dakota along the rising Sheyenne River say it appears to be under control.
National Guard helicopters dropped 1,000-pound sandbags into the breach and crew has been working to fix the gap in the levee in Valley City.
The National Weather Service said the Sheyenne is expected to crest Tuesday in Valley City about two feet higher than the record set in 1882. The Sheyenne River empties into the Red River.
