episode_narrativeA winter storm with heavy snow and gusty northwest winds created blizzard-like conditions over western South Dakota. The heaviest snow fell in the central and northern Black Hills where one to two feet was common. Lead received 38.9 inches, setting an all-time state record for 24 hour snowfall. Winds frequently gusted over 45 mph, reducing visibility to zero and creating drifts several feet deep. Many roads in the Lead-Deadwood area were blocked for over 24 hours. The wet heavy snow downed numerus power lines and poles. Electric service to some rural areas was out for five days. Damage to power lines and poles in western South Dakota was estimated near $600,000.
