We’re in the midst of what winter can do in North Dakota, at least in terms of temperatures and wind. Ugly. Cold. Nasty. Prohibitive. But hey, the end of winter is in sight!
It may not seem that way, but for long-time North Dakotans who have experienced winters lasting from early October and into March and April, this winter has been a walk in the park. January proved to be the third warmest in recorded history for the Minot and snow cover, well, there just hasn’t been any. A bit here and there, but no intersections obscured by snow piles or impassable country roads.
