News accounts vary...but at least 18 reported deaths occurred across the Great Plains states due to the blizzard. At least nine people were killed across North Dakota (5) and Minnesota (4), and at least another 6 (possibly more) people died in South Dakota. A few of the fatalities were from overexertion from shoveling snow, while other deaths occurred as a result of becoming disoriented while out in the treacherous blizzard conditions. In addition, tens of thousands of livestock perished in the storm.

You get it good than, that is the predominate wind direction. I am sure you know that. A south wind is my worse if the snow is moving.

This is the first yr the county came out and put wind rows in the field with the Road grader (Maintainer). He went North and South for a half mile winging the wind rows roughly 3 to 4 ft tall. That will stop a lot of snow from ending up in my driveways

That will help you a lot. having some wind rows out there in the field. The skid and blower is the best thing I ever had to move snow by far. I did 7 hours on it over two days a week ago. I would have been a week with a loader.
