 Snowplows are busy traveling around northern Minnesota to clear the roads from the most recent storm. The Minnesota Department of Transportation says it's working 24 hours, 7 days a week, to keep the state highways and interstates clear. The routes inside and outside of town are being continually recleared. However, the plows travel at about 30 miles per hour and may take some time to loop back around. It can be a little bit unforeseen as you have snow covering the surface. There's no place underneath that snow surface, so driving for the conditions. It's okay to be out there, but motorists really need to slow down, keep their lights on, buck up their seatbelts and give those plows room to work. Once the snowstorm passes, which Stacy will tell us when that will be, in a second here, MnDOT will begin their cleanup operations where snow will be removed from the road shoulder bridges and right-of-ways.
