Several counties have issued flood emergency declarations.

FARGO, N.D.–North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum will be visiting flood-affected areas throughout the state and meeting with residents along with Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring on Monday.

Burgum and Goehring will be talking with residents about last weekend’s record-breaking early snowstorm and explain the state’s approach to dealing with floods.

The meetings will take place at the Fargo City Hall, Grand Forks Public Works, the Jamestown Civic Center, and the Wells County Fairgrounds in Fessenden.

Several counties have issued flood emergency declarations, including Barnes, Grand Forks, LaMoure, Stutsman, and Wells.
