Blizzard on the blizzard path paralyzes Midwest travel
Wind driven snow trapped hundreds across the Dakotas into Minnesota and Wisconsin, with 18 inch accumulations at Aberdeen and ten foot drifts. High winds slowed transport, froze busses, planes, trains, and left deaths in its wake while workers huddled in plants and many high school basketball tournaments were canceled. A bus from Mitchell SD was stranded near Sioux Falls overnight until a plow freed it. The storm center moved northeast from Des Moines toward Dubuque and Green Bay, prompting warnings of more severe weather to come.
