Heaviest Snow Storm Hits Area With Drifts Up to Five Feet
The winter storm struck Saturday night into Sunday, following a heavy Friday rain. Twelve inches fell here with two inches moisture, creating five foot drifts that blocked highways and paralyzed traffic until state and county plows cleared paths by Monday. Rural routes suffered, townsfolk faced closed sidewalks and schools opened late, while a thaw neared and spring crops were seen as helped by the moisture. Elk Point board approves 20 percent salary cuts for high school staff to align with statewide retrenchment, reducing payroll and eliminating one teacher. Services and meetings are arranged to address the storm aftermath.
