A winter storm hit the central Minnesota area of Stearns County with some areas receiving almost a foot of snow.
A narrow band of heavy snow hit the area this afternoon and caused hundreds of accidents.
The heavy snow and numerous accidents caused Interstate 94 west of Saint Cloud, MN to be closed for several hours this afternoon.
At one point the road conditions were so poor that in order to open up the interstate, a Minnesota State Trooper had to guide a Snow Plow through the traffic jam just to get to the major wreck the shut down the interstate.
Two days ago in Loveland, Colorado the temperature was 82F degrees outside. Today the area was hit hard today by a powerful winter storm that dumped over a foot of heavy wet snow on the region.
Repair crews have been busy most of the night and are still busy repairing infrastructure due to the damage caused by the heavy snow.
The weight of the heavy snow snapped numerous tree branches and the falling tree limbs snapped the electrical and utility lines causing major outages around the area. Most of the tree’s in the region still had all their foliage on them which allowed more the normal amounts of snow to accumulate. Along with electrical service, wide spread internet service outages were reported all over town from downed trees taking out telephone wiring as well.
In the video shot by StormChasingVideo.Com Weather Paparazzi Justin King, it shows the destruction caused by the heavy wet snow as a six inch diameter tree branch is sticking out of a car windshield. The footage continues with more downed tree limbs on cars, homes, modular trailers etc. There are scenes of kids and families sledding on the fresh (now 12 inches) of snow that has fallen in Loveland, CO.
The video continues in the older parts of Loveland, CO that have trees that are over 100 year old. This areas sustained major damage and lost large limbs along with more damage to homes and automobiles due to the falling trees and tree limbs.
In the second half of the video, it shows a POV footage while driving around Loveland, CO to document the damage. Stoplights were down across town along with many downed trees blocking the roads.

An outbreak of severe weather across the high plains prompts severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings from Wyoming into Kansas where over 200 severe weather reports were generated. In this video package by BNVN Weather Paparazzi Tony Laubach, it shows a discrete supercell that formed on the Wyoming side of the Wyoming and Nebraska border.
This storm system tracked over 300 miles and generated hail up to baseball size as well as several weak tornadoes. It moved across four states with it starting out in Wyoming and then moving into the Nebraska Panhandle, clipping northeast Colorado, back into Nebraska and finally ending up moving into Kansas.
Video opens up with footage in Hitchcock County, Nebraska right along the KS/NE border as hail up to golfball size was falling in front of the Welcome to Nebraska state sign on State Highway 25 about 15 miles south of Trenton. Video continues with various shots of large hail up to 2.25″ in diameter falling on the roads and vehicles. Final shot of first part of the video shows Tony holding spiked hail up to 2″ in diameter.
The second half of the video includes footage from around Sidney, Nebraska which is in the panhandle along Interstate 80. Video shows various storm clouds and then continues to show a weak tornado called a “Landspout Tornado” that developed 2 miles south of Sidney on the south side of Interstate 80. The video continues showing more of the hailstorm on Interstate 80 and State Route 19 southwest of Sidney.
Tony shot some interesting footage as hail covers NE-19 south of Sidney where the hail is several inches deep. Tony compared the hail compared with a tennis-ball and measured on a ruler to 2.25″. After the hail fell and started to melt, in the field in front of Tony it became covered with another rare event called “Hail Fog” where the air close to the ground cools down to temperatures much cooler than that of the surrounding air.
The video ends with footage of a rainbow while driving. Tony said he was chasing the rainbow.
