Winter Storm Causes Multiple Road Closures and Travel Advisories in the Midwest
The North Dakota Department of Transportation and North Dakota Highway Patrol have closed I-94 from Bismarck to Fargo due to blowing snow, icy road conditions, and near-zero visibility. Snow drifts are covering westbound I-94 just west of Valley City, and many secondary roads across eastern North Dakota are blocked or impassable. Drivers are not allowed to travel on a closed road due to life-threatening conditions, and officials advise checking road conditions before traveling.
