The Norwood Area This area is typically
not at risk to flooding due to the primary dikes that exist along
Lyndale Road. This year, concerns existed for some lower portions
along the Red.
Some lower homes are at considered at risk of being surrounded by
the Red. Mounds of sandbags sit waiting if needed to close off
driveways leading to home along the Red River.
Across the Red River from Lyndale, the Redboine Boating Club sits
well below the level of the Red.

Normally the left face of this Rowing Club
building has a view of the Red River. Today, the river surrounds it
on three sides.
Sandbags sit atop the primary dikes of Lyndale Road.
Sandbags piles sit if needed to seal driveways leading to riverbank
homes.
