Another powerful winter storm system is hitting central Minnesota hard again with more heavy snow and sleet. A foot of snow is has fallen over the Stearns County, MN area around the city of Saint Cloud, Minnesota.
B-Roll footage shows the horrible driving conditions due to the heavy snow. The snow fall rates were over an inch and a half an hour at times.
Any vehicle that crashed on Interstate 94 and was not blocking the roadway was actually left on the side of the road due to low visibility from the heavy snow making it too dangerous for tow truck crews to remove the vehicles until after the storm.
