NBC sent its own reporter Kevin Tibbles to the banks of the Red River in North Dakota to watch the second straight year of sandbagging to ward of floods from the snow melt. CBS relied on Heather Brown of WCCO-TV, the network's Minneapolis affiliate. ABC had Sharyn Alfonsi file a portmanteau package, linking the subsiding floods along the Passaic River in New Jersey with the rising waters on the great plains. This time last year, Fargo ND warranted a heavy week of coverage. NBC's Tibbles told us of a possible solution to Fargo's woes, "a planned diversion canal to reroute some of the rising river around populated areas, through either North Dakota or neighboring Minnesota."
