YO PIGGY PORKCHOP AMBER ALERT AT NJ PATERSON

[@EliteTape779]

1 am something

[@sbriggs101]

We now have reports of a dam failure in Mankato, MN

[@PiggyPorkchop]

I did record it, just not home to upload it right now.

[@POMiller07]

A levee is like a dam, right? So, if it fails, it'll flood the surrounding areas like a dam would if it were to fail, yeah?

[@VehicularVortex]

In a way, yes. Dams and levees both hold back water, but dams are much more sophisticated in their purpose. But yes, a levee failure would cause severe flooding, as described in this alert.

[@POMiller07]

@@VehicularVortex Ah, got it. Thanks for the information.
