I'm in Fargo, and it's been predicted that it's mainly going to miss us.  What a bummer if they're right about the amount of snow - be safe and good luck @prairieghost !

Hey Canthony, long time no see! Yeah, stay home and hope the power stays on. They have already closed schools and many businesses ahead of it. It started snowing here about an hour or so ago and sounds like it’ll probably be a blizzard in a couple hours. I work from home though so no missed work for me, damn it!

Same to you, Happy! My sister and her family live in West Fargo and my brother and his family are near Grand Forks. I’m up by Minot, so we’re the bullseye, apparently!

Lol, no.  The animals still need feed and water.  Calving season for the ranchers.

Hey! Hope all is well. I have stayed away from most platforms. Just been working crazy hours and made a slight change in my current career that has taken a lot of time.

Well, as of this morning we’re right around 20 inches of snow and it’s still coming down, so if Jimmy can get here he is welcome to plow….lmao (hmmmm, should I have phrased it that way?? =) )

Those spring storms can really dump a lot of snow. Hopefully it will warm up and melt off soon. Are you in Garrison? I spent a lot of time up there fishing in the past. Stay warm.

I remember a blizzard in the early 80s that dropped over 30" in central SD,  houses in my neighborhood had drifts from the peak of one house all the way across the street to the peak of another house.  the storm lasted 3 days,  took the city another 3 days or so the get the streets all bucked open,  and then warm winds and weather had it all pretty much gone in a about 10 days.

Hey Jargo, I am from Garrison originally but actually live up by Minot now. I sure would love to move to Garrison though. Lots of great memories there at Sakakawea with family and friends, and lots of walleye to eat!
