UPDATE…<\/p>\n

May 30, 2016 Rainfall Totals issued Tuesday afternoon…<\/p>\n

VALLEY CITY 2NW (BARNES)……………………………….. 0.88″<\/p>\n

JAMESTOWN …………………………………………………………..0.99″<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There’s a chance of thunderstorms Thursday night and Friday.<\/p>\n

The highest chances will be from the Turtle Mountains south into the James River Valley.<\/p>\n

Saturday through Monday look dry along with a moderating trend as an upper level ridge builds over the northern Rockies. Afternoon highs will rise from the upper 70s into the lower 80s through the period.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

…Flood and Water Resources Outlook…<\/p>\n

This probabilistic Spring Flood and Water Resources outlook is for<\/p>\n

the Missouri and James River basins of North Dakota and covers<\/p>\n

the period of late May through late August.<\/p>\n

The following message has four sections. The first provides some text<\/p>\n

on the highlights of this outlook and conditions affecting the local<\/p>\n

hydrology. The second section gives the current and normal\/historical<\/p>\n

risks of flooding as determined by the Ensemble Streamflow Forecast<\/p>\n

model of the National Weather Service. The third section gives the<\/p>\n

current probabilities for reaching flood stage at the listed forecast<\/p>\n

locations. And finally, the fourth section covers the risk of the<\/p>\n

river sites falling below the listed stages.<\/p>\n

…Flood Outlook Highlights…<\/p>\n

This outlook contains the probabilities for reaching flood stage<\/p>\n

at the forecast points within the Missouri and James River basins<\/p>\n

of North Dakota. Due to recent widespread and heavy rainfall, what<\/p>\n

had been seasonally below normal probabilities for flooding are<\/p>\n

now much closer to normal as recent rains now occupy a good<\/p>\n

portion of the soil column’s capacity to hold water.<\/p>\n

…Current Conditions…<\/p>\n

Despite recent widespread and heavy rains, rivers tend to remain near<\/p>\n

the low end of normal. Recent rains have brought soil moisture levels<\/p>\n

into the normal, but not excessively wet range over the past couple of<\/p>\n

weeks.<\/p>\n

…Weather Outlook…<\/p>\n

The month of May has generally seen scattered rainfall totals with no<\/p>\n

really large areas being either exceptionally dry or excessively wet.<\/p>\n

In the near term 6-10 and 8 – 14 day outlooks the expectation is for<\/p>\n

above normal temperatures and below normal precipitation once the<\/p>\n

current wet pattern subsides. This transitions into a generally equal<\/p>\n

chance for above normal, near normal, or below normal precipitation and<\/p>\n

temperature pattern for June with the three month outlook suggesting a<\/p>\n

slightly enhanced chance for above normal temperatures while retaining<\/p>\n

the equal chance for precipitation.<\/p>\n

Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The Jamestown City Fire Department was called\u00a0to a garage fire early Monday morning.<\/p>\n

The fire destroyed a garage and heavily damaged the kitchen of a home \u00a0at approximately 12:20 a.m. at 613 14th Street. Southeast.<\/p>\n

Jamestown City Fire\u00a0 Chief Jim Reuther says 21 fire fighters and four units firefighters remained the scene until about 2 a.m.<\/p>\n

No injuries were reported.<\/p>\n

The cause of the fire is under investigation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 Authorities were called to a Southwest Jamestown business late Friday morning where a suspected explosive device was spotted.<\/p>\n

Jamestown Assistant Police Chief, Maj. John Johnson says police responded at 11:44 a.m., to GCR Tires & Service\u00a0at\u00a0 1819 8th Avenue\u00a0near Highway 281 South.<\/p>\n

Johnson, says an employee of the tire center found \u201ca homemade explosive device\u201d behind the store.<\/p>\n

Johnson\u00a0reported that \u00a0officers created safe zone, blocking off access to the area\u00a0for about a\u00a0half block.\u00a0Individuals in the safe zone were\u00a0apprised of the situation.<\/p>\n

The Red River Regional Bomb Squad from Fargo was called,\u00a0 and arrived on the scene at 2:20 pm,\u00a0 removing\u00a0the suspected explosive device from behind the building.<\/p>\n

GCR Tires & Service was evacuated when the bomb squad removed the device.<\/p>\n

He says the device was a half a football in size, and was wrapped in tape, appearing to have something inside it.<\/p>\n

Johnson adds, \u201cThere were fuses or something sticking out of it.”<\/p>\n

Johnson said the bomb squad took the device back to Fargo where it will be analyzed and the findings will be sent to the Jamestown Police Department.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi) Wes Anderson, Director, of the Barnes County Historical Society, of Valley City was awarded a plaque from John Andrus of the Bluegrass Association of North Dakota.<\/p>\n

The inscription reads: “In appreciation for hosting Monthly Bluegrass Jam Sessions, the Bluegrass Association of North Dakota is pleased to recognize Barnes County Museum as a valued partner in promoting the joys of homemade bluegrass music for musicians and listeners, alike. Presented this 16th day of April, 2016. President John Andrus. Jams are the second Saturday of each month, 1:00-5:00PM.”<\/p>\n

Anderson says, “We’re honored to host the monthly Bluegrass jam sessions as it is a wonderful use of the museum facility to celebrate not only history, but the arts. It brings people to the museum and is one more reason to come and participate!”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi)\u00a0 Early voting in Stutsman County starts Tuesday and runs through June 10th, at the Stutsman County Courthouse from 8-a.m. to 5-p.m.\u00a0 A voting area will be set up in the lobby area on the first floor of the courthouse.<\/p>\n

The courthouse will not be open for early voting on Saturdays this year, or on Monday June 13th.<\/p>\n

Stutsman County Auditor and COO Casey Bradley says, there has not been a large number of early voters on Saturdays the past two elections.\u00a0 The change also saves the county paying the election staff on those days.<\/p>\n

He says on June 13th the staff\u00a0 converts the data from all the early voting and absentee ballots to final elections data to make sure no one tries to vote twice.<\/p>\n

132 absentee ballots have been sent to voters in Stutsman County, and\u00a0\u00a0as of last Friday, 59 have been returned.<\/p>\n

The primary election along with\u00a0Jamestown City Council, City Park Board and Jamestown Public School Board elections\u00a0will be held June 14.<\/p>\n

County Commission candidates will be nominated to run in the November General Election.<\/p>\n

Two ballot measures\u00a0 will be decided in the primary election. State Measure 1 asks voters to approve Senate Bill 2351, the corporate farm law, which if approved will allow corporations to own and operate hog and dairy farms of up to 640 acres in North Dakota.<\/p>\n

Stutsman County Measure 1 asks county voters if they would approve changing the county state\u2019s attorney position to an appointed position or leave it an elected position.<\/p>\n

Voters\u00a0 can only vote under one political party on the primary election ballot. If anyone votes for candidates in different political parties on the same ballot, that ballot will be disqualified.<\/p>\n

On the non-party portion of the ballot voters will decide on the state superintendent of public instruction, North Dakota Supreme Court justice and Southeast District Court judges.<\/p>\n

The state ballot for North Dakota political parties lists candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, North Dakota Legislature and governor. Also listed on the political parties portion of the ballot are the state auditor, state treasurer, state insurance commissioner and public service commissioner<\/p>\n

Other questions are on the non-party ballot are, whether the City Council should publish its meeting minutes in the official city newspaper. The other question asks if the Jamestown Public School District should publish a record of the proceedings from the School Board in a newspaper of general circulation of the school district for the next two years. Currently the Jamestown City Council and Jamestown Public School Board publish meeting minutes in The Jamestown Sun.<\/p>\n

Bradley said primary elections don\u2019t always mean there will be large voter turnouts. He said there was a high turnout in the 2014 general election, the one with eight state measures to vote on.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota voters will decide next month whether to uphold the 2015 Legislature\u2019s move to loosen the state\u2019s nearly century-old ban on corporate farming.<\/p>\n

Lawmakers decided to allow non-family corporations to own hog and dairy operations.<\/p>\n

Supporters say the exemption is needed to save the two dying industries by giving them more access to capital and opportunities to expand. They point out that the ban on corporate farming has not stemmed a steady loss of family farms through the years.<\/p>\n

Opponents say family farming has served North Dakota well, and there\u2019s no reason to change. They worry about opening the barn door to large, out-of-state corporations that might be less environmentally responsible \u2014 and tougher to be held accountable.<\/p>\n

Binford\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The north Dakota Highway Patrol reports\u00a0a 35-year-old Binford woman was killed in a rollover\u00a0Saturday morning on N.D. Highway 65, near milepost 2,\u00a0about 2.5 miles east of Binford.<\/p>\n

Randy Kreil (kryl) and some Bismarck-area Democratic legislative candidates say the possible transfer of more than 9,000 acres would be unfair to hunters, anglers and outdoors enthusiasts.

\u00a0FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) – Two years ago in southeast Texas, the Brazos River was bone dry, but today it’s expected to hit a record crest of 53.5 feet in Fort Bend County, raising flood worries in the region. The area has suffered through four days of torrential rain and the deaths of six people in floods. A Brazos River Authority map shows all 11 of the reservoirs fed by the Brazos at 95 to 100 percent capacity.

It’s the fourth in a series of high-profile failures that somewhat temper recent worries that the North is pushing quickly toward its goal of a nuclear-tipped missile that can reach America’s mainland. South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said the missile was a powerful mid-range vehicle which could potentially reach U.S. military bases in Asia and the Pacific.
