Windy enough to go cow tipping as long as you tip with the wind.

I don't think I've ever saw it snow this hard, Will have our 3-5'' in 45 minutes at this rate.

took me almost an hour to drive 13 miles home, could see maybe 1 or 2 of the orange lines in the middle of the road sometimes nothing.

did meet some (insert your own description here) truck drivers that thought it was sunny with a mild breeze and 10 mile visibility with the speed they were running.

pretty spooky to see nothing then a truck appears 15 foot in front of you hauling ass.

have to say the few cars and pickups I saw were driving as safely as possible with the condition.

I just ran to the M&H gas station to mix a Pendleton in the office after closing time, was a beautiful 35 mph wind, and almost no snow. Think I might have 2.

How wet is the snow? That much wind if she's wet it will be a matter of time till she starts ripping power lines down. Side note the river in Bismarck broke open so seems like a good time to make some more ice.

Might of been the Canadian trucker on the 6:00 news interview that said he was down to 35-40 Mph at times because visibility was zero.
