On Sunday, water about a foot deep poured over Interstate 94 near Jamestown, reduced vehicle speeds and sweeping two semitrailers off the road. No injuries were reported.

The flames engulfed the bus near Williston on Sunday night. Company spokesman Kevin Pursey tells The Associated Press the 20 people on board got off safely, though the bus likely is destroyed. He says there’s no word on what caused the fire. Pursey says the bus is fairly new, being built in 2005. And he says all buses go through a pre-trip inspection.

Missoula resident Angel Ogden said some of the passengers lost luggage and other valuables in the fire, but Pursey says he thinks all of the luggage was salvaged.  Another Jefferson Lines bus is being rerouted to Williston to pick up the stranded passengers.

The Bismarck National Weather Service says about 3.25 inches fell in Jamestown and 10 miles west of Jamestown about 3.55 inches of rain fell over a two day period. Bismarck received a record 3.50 inches of rain combined between Saturday and Sunday.

Grand Forks National Weather Service says about 1.10 inches of rain fell Saturday into Sunday in the Valley City area.

Rain is continuing to fall, and the weather service has posted a flood watch for western and central North Dakota through Monday night. There is the potential for overland flooding and rises in some creeks and rivers.

Water remains on Interstate 94 near Jamestown, and traffic speeds are reduced. The water swept two semitrailers off the road on Sunday. No injuries were reported.
