A ‘bomb cyclone’ is continuing to move over the Plains and Upper Midwest after dropping as much as two feet of snow in places.
The system is forecast to weaken on Friday as it moves north into Canada, however gusty winds remain a concern with blizzard warnings remaining in effect for some 4.5 million residents in parts of the Dakotas and Minnesota.
As of late Thursday, the storm had dropped up to 25 inches in Norbeck, South Dakota, while the highest wind speed was recorded in Pueblo West, Colorado, where a ‘gustnado’ briefly reached 107mph.
The Minnesota State Patrol said it was investigating a fatal crash early Friday morning in Wright County, on the outskirts of Minneapolis, involving a car and a tractor-trailer. Further details were not immediately available.

The storm has already been blamed for one death in Denver, where on Thursday a man driving a pickup truck died in a collision with a snow plow assigned to clear Denver International Airport.
Both this storm and one several weeks ago in the Midwest qualified as a ‘bomb cyclone,’ a weather phenomenon that entails a rapid drop in air pressure and a storm strengthening explosively, according to David Roth, a forecaster at the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center in Maryland.
Bomb cyclones are defined as a drop in atmospheric pressure of 24 millibars in 24 hours.
The prior storm was followed by heavy flooding due to rapidly melting snow, and residents fear a repeat could wreak further havoc on agricultural operations that have already been severely impacted by the chaotic spring weather……More Here
