ByBlakeNicholson The Associated Press BISMARCK, N.D. Minor flooding is almost certain thisspringintheareawhere Dakota Access pipeline op- ponents have camped for months to protest the proj- ect, the National Weather Service said Friday. The report, the first flood outlook for the season, shows little chance of signif- icant flooding but indicates floodwaters could reach at least parts of the camp. The weather service bases the outlook on a heavy, wet snowpack,though itstresses that it's early and the next outlook on Feb. 16 should provide a clearer picture. The amount of actual flooding still depends on future snowfall, how much water the snow contains and how quickly it melts, and "there's a lot of uncer- tainty in that realm," mete- orologist Bill Abeling said. The camp near the con- fluence of the Missouri and Cannonball rivers has been home since August to hundreds and sometimes thousands of pipeline op- ponents from around the world. They support the Standing Rock Sioux tribe's claims that the $3.8 billion pipeline to carry North Da- kota oil to Illinois threat- ens drinking water if the Army Corps of Engineers allows it to cross under the Missouri River just north of the tribe's reservation. Texas-based developer En- ergy Transfer Partners says the pipeline is safe. The project is stalled while the Corps and ETP battle in court over per- mission for the crossing, though President Donald Trump this week called on the Corps to reconsider its December decision to do more study on the cross- ing. It's not known when the Corps might act. The protest camp has dwindled to fewer than 300 people due to harsh winter weather.

Snow showers will stretch from the Dakotas through the Great Lakes and into interior portions of the Northeast. The steadiest snow is expected from lake-effect snow squalls in western and northern New York, as well as in northern Michigan. Breezy conditions will prevail from the northern Plains to New England. It will be dry across the Southeast with mainly sunny skies from the Carolinas to the central Plains.
