    Christmas travelers struggled to get home as I-90 in South Dakota closed due to blizzard conditions. In nearby Box Elder, SD, it was a total whiteout as winds in excess of 50mph drifted in many garage doors and driveways. Heavy duty machinery and plows were used to keep neighborhoods somewhat passable as snow continued to drift over streets. More snow and high winds are expected into Tuesday night before the rare retrograding storm exits the region.
    Package includes:
    Huge snow drifts covering driveways, cars, and porches
    Car port torn apart and damaged by wind
    Vehicles stuck on side of the road in snow
    Whiteout conditions with high winds
    I-90 closure signage and closure gate
    Front end loader and snow plows clearing snow
    Semi trucks in snow
    Driver POV on I-90

    Wow. That idiot too close behind the plow, and with no lights on.

    I live in Kansas over Christmas holidays we looked like this, no one on the roads we stayed home, gave the plows time to clean the streets and highway off, to deadly to drive.

    The irony of the person in car following the plow close enuff the salt spreader can sling salt hard enuff to crack their windshield.
    Plow driver can not see them in his review mirrors...

    High winds and low visibility for sure, but "huge drifts?" Please. This is average for the upper Midwest. Where is your writer from? Miami?

      @@a.florschutzcamplin9011 That is the biggest crock of BS the media has cranked out in a while. They were measuring the ground surface temps in 2023 as opposed to air temps as per forever. How hot does the ground get in the Sun? OH MY GAWD, WE'RE BOILING!!!
