| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Two to five inches of snow fell across northeast and part of central South Dakota. This new snowfall combined with the already deep and expansive snowpack and winds of 20 to 40 mph brought widespread blowing and drifting snow. Visibilities were reduced to near zero at times making travel treacherous and many roads were blocked by snowdrifts. Several roads were closed. Several vehicles became stuck and had to be pulled out. Many area schools were closed once again. Some snowfall amounts included, 4 inches at Clear Lake, Britton, Waubay, and Wilmot, 5 inches at Onida, Blunt, Highmore, Miller, and Milbank. |
