\u00a0Bismarck (CSi) The National Weather Service reports that for the James River basin, the flood outlook ranges from normal to well below normal flood chances, for the next few weeks based on basin conditions as of January 23, 2015.<\/p>\n

Currently, the frost depth is not nearly as deep as a year ago, at around 30 inches. The Weather Service says at this time there is no unusual risk.<\/p>\n

Snowpack at this time and its water equivalent is reported to nearly and inch to a few small areas of two inches in the upper James River basin.<\/p>\n

The Weather Service says soil levels that were high for most of last summer have dropped to a more normal range due to a warm and dry September and October of 2014.<\/p>\n

Ice thickness is near normal to a little below normal, suggesting that problems associated with excessive ice are also not at levels seen in the past few years.<\/p>\n

As of January 23rd<\/sup> the 6-10- and 8-14 day temperature outlook reflects warmer than normal temperatures with a shift to more normal temps in early February.<\/p>\n

Precipitation is forecast at elevated, but not suggesting any significant amounts.<\/p>\n

Major rivers and lakes are all within their normal ranges for this time of the year, and all flood control reservoirs are all with their normal range.<\/p>\n

\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The National Weather Service has issued its first spring flood forecast for the Red River Basin, and it’s as mild as the winter weather.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The weather service says the flood risk is markedly low due to dry soils, well below-normal snowpack and moisture, and low stream flows.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The forecast calls for a 95 percent chance that the Red River will crest at 15.5 feet in Fargo, where the flood stage is 18 feet.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The climate outlook calls for near-normal temperatures and precipitation into spring.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The next flood outlook is scheduled to be released on Feb. 19.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota regulators have ordered Grand Forks Bean Co. to stop doing business after complaints by farmers about not being paid for delivered crops.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The state Public Service Commission has asked a judge to name the commission as trustee in insolvency proceedings against the company.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Calls to the Grand Forks company were not answered Friday.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Fargo’s acting mayor says the Federal Emergency Management Agency has moved to continue to allow homeowners to have basements in the city’s new floodplain.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FEMA is responsible for the National Home Insurance Program and does not always allow basements in homes that are within a floodplain. Fargo has been exempted from the ban for decades, but a new recently issued floodplain map required a renewal of that exemption.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The \u00a0exemption has allowed homeowners in the floodplain who have flood-proofed basements to keep their flood insurance premiums low. City leaders say premiums could have increased to up to $12,000 per household if the exemption hadn’t been renewed.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Acting Mayor Tim Mahoney says the renewal came after a “big fight” between city officials and FEMA.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota lawmakers are considering legislation that would amend the state’s 24\/7 sobriety program to include ignition interlock devices that prohibit someone who is drunk to start a vehicle.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Minot Republican Rep. Andrew Maragos is sponsoring the bill. It would allow someone convicted of drunken driving to use the devices instead of taking twice-daily alcohol tests, or having to wear an ankle bracelet.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Transportation Department deputy director Mark Nelson says the state’s sobriety program is working well without ignition interlock devices.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Maragos says he is sponsoring a bill because one of his constituents is a former Colorado resident with a drunken driving conviction there. The man must use an interlock device but can’t get a driver’s license in North Dakota because the state does not use them.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A bill in the North Dakota House would prevent animal rights groups and others from harassing hunters with drones.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It’s already illegal in the state to use any private aircraft, including drones, to scout wildlife or help hunters pursue game. Republican Rep. Mike Lefor says this bill is meant to keep drones out of the hunting experience altogether.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A spokeswoman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals says the group is opposed to the bill. Ingrid Newkirk says drones do not make noise and are a valuable tool in making sure hunters aren’t doing anything illegal.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PETA sells a so-called Air Angels drone for $325. Newkirk says the group has sold about a dozen of them so far.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A hearing on the bill has not been scheduled.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – A group of professors and administrators at the University of North Dakota has been selected to participate in a national engineering innovation program.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The team is one of 25 from colleges around the country that will take part in the second cohort of the National Center for Engineering’s Pathways to Innovation Program.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The two-year program helps schools design and implement plans for undergraduate engineering education.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The UND team is led by Tim O’Keefe, interim director of the school of entrepreneurship, and Brian Tande, associate professor and chair of the UND chemical engineering department.<\/p>\n

DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) – Pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine are rejecting a previously signed peace deal and have announced a new multi-pronged offensive against Ukrainian troops. A separatist leader says rebel fighters will push government troops to the border of the Donetsk region and possibly even further. He says his side is done with talks about a cease-fire.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration is scaling back the release of consumers’ personal information from the government’s health insurance website. The move follows an Associated Press report that HealthCare.gov was sending out personal data such as age, income, ZIP code, tobacco use and whether a woman is pregnant. The Health and Human Services Department at first defended the information-sharing, saying the outside companies only used the data to analyze the workings of HealthCare.gov.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LONDON (AP) – The number of arrests in Britain last year for suspected Syria-related terror offenses increased by a factor of six. Scotland Yard says police made 165 arrests across the country for offenses including the financing, commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, and attending a terrorist training camp. That compares to 25 Syria-related arrests in 2013. Police say most of the disrupted plots appeared to be inspired or directed by terrorism overseas.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WHITEVILLE, N.C. (AP) – A 70-year-old North Carolina man has been freed from prison after a three-judge panel ruled he was wrongly convicted in the stabbing deaths of a mother and daughter nearly four decades ago. The judges ruled that Joseph Sledge was innocent after hearing from a DNA expert who said none of the evidence collected matched Sledge. Sledge is the eighth person exonerated after the state set up the North Carolina Innocence Inquiry Commission, the only state-run investigative agency of its kind.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) – The NFL says its investigation has drawn no conclusions about the New England Patriots use of underinflated balls in the AFC championship game Sunday night. The league says evidence does show the Patriots used underinflated footballs during the first half. It says the Patriots have pledged full cooperation and made available information and personnel the NFL has requested. The league is not offering a timetable for the investigation.
