2011 Red River flood
The 2011 Red River flood took place along the Red River of the North in Manitoba in Canada and North Dakota and Minnesota in the United States beginning in April 2011. The flood was, in part, due to high moisture levels in the soil from the previous year which meant that further accumulation would threaten the flood prone region. Flood predictors were worried of a dual crest of both the Assiniboine River and the Red striking Winnipeg at the same time.
