The weather's pretty rotten out there. In western Minnesota, every school has closed down for the day, including Minnewaska Area and Alexandria. In our area, Benson, Osakis, Willmar, and NL-S were closed as of 8:00am. The lone school still 2 hours late was Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg.
In the Glenwood area, the snowfall is quite heavy and over 3 inches has already accumulated by 8am. The wind has turned the storm into a full-blown blizzard.
