FARGO, N.D. (KFGO) – Snow, wind, and blowing snow are the big problems out on the highways this morning and likely for much of today. Minnesota State Patrol Sgt. Jesse Grabow is East of Moorhead:
“The interstate is in pretty good shape it’s more of an issue of visibility. You can be driving along just fine at 60mph then the road just disappears due to the conditions,” said Grabow.
North Dakota Highway Patrol Captain Bryan Niewind has been checking travel conditions North of Fargo.
“Visibility is the issue. The snow is very fine and blowing. It’s gonna be slow going on roads today. Sometimes you’ll be going 40mph, then you’ll be down to 10mph. With these winds that are blowing on these North-South roads, visibility is gonna be horrible,” says Niewind.
Niewind and Grabow say there have been some vehicles that have gone off the roadways but so far no reports of any serious accidents.
