Ugly weather in North Dakota has left at least 19,000 people in the western part of the state facing days without power. It also left thousands residents along the Red River that separates the state from Minnesota dealing with flash flooding. A blizzard over the weekend snapped hundreds or thousands of power poles in western North Dakota. A spokesman for a 100-year-old utility company called the destruction the worst ever in its system. At the same time, Minnesota sent National Guard members to help sandbag near the North Dakota border against the rising Red Lake River. The National Weather Service originally warned of a record crest on that river but it topped out below that mark.
