- but it blew around like crazy so it's hard to say just how much we got here. Though it started with rain and the roads are still pretty icy today.

I know conditions were awful out around Olivia (Renville County). Gov. Walz had the National Guard open the armory there for stranded travelers. My cousin was grateful as it meant her son didn't have to drive home from work. (They live on 212 between Hector & Bird Island - some nasty open stretches along that route.)
