Winter weather again impacted motorists as it was a slow go in different regions of South Dakota due to snowfall and slippery roads on Easter and Monday.
Law enforcement and towing companies found themselves busy on Interstate 90 as several semi trucks ended up in the ditch. The Jackson County Sheriff's Office in western South Dakota posted these pictures of the recovery on its Facebook page.
Snowfall amounts from Easter and Monday reached nearly a foot in one location. Custer topped the list with 11 inches of snow, followed by 10.4 inches about 12 miles south of Quinn. Below are the snowfall reports from the National Weather Service before 7:00 pm CDT on Monday evening.
