Freezing rain and sleet fell across the area on the afternoon of the 3rd, helping to put a little crust on the old snowpack. As the winds increased during the late afternoon and evening, several light snow bands also moved through. As these snow bands moved through, visibilities dropped to near zero at times in open country. Conditions generally improved when the snow ended, indicating the crust on the old snow mainly held, not allowing the old snow to blow around too. Several major roads were closed, including Interstate 29 between Grand Forks and Fargo and U. S. Highway 2 between East Grand Forks and Crookston.
