Several structures are flooded and some sand bagging operations are continuing especially around Hunter and Bowman (Side) Lake. Low-water crossings are inundated with water and may not be passable. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 1046 AM CDT, Excessive runoff due to rainfall and snowmelt is causing large rises on Island Lake. To prevent further flooding, Minnesota Power is releasing high flows into the Cloquet River which should mitigate the overall flood threat while temporarily increasing the flood threat along the Cloquet River. Flooding is already occurring in the warned area. - More rainfall is expected today and tonight, so extra water needs to be evacuated from Island Lake to maintain control of water levels in the basin. Water has begun to recede from the crest as Minnesota Power`s plan is to decrease output from Island Lake by 100 cfs per hour until outflow matches inflow. Flooding will continue until output reaches 3500 cfs from the Island Lake Dam. - Some locations that will experience flooding include... Island Lake, Fredenberg, Taft and Fish Lake. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Turn around, don`t drown when encountering flooded roads.
