Late winter of 2019 has been a relentless one for North Dakota. The entire state keeps getting waves upon waves of winter storms and many areas have multiple feet of snow on the ground. After getting hit by a huge blizzard in late February and early March that shut down many roads we all hoped that would be the end of it – but that is unfortunately not the case.

North Dakota has already seen more than its fair share of snow in 2019, with drifts and piles multiple feet high in parts of the state - and they're going to be bigger.
