Snowstorm Closes Highways, Schools
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Stranded travelers packed the Lone Steer Motel in Steele, N.D., as many as five to a room to wait out a blizzard that cut visibility nearly to zero, bringing much of the northern Plains to a standstill. Greyhound shut all service between Great Falls, Mont., and Minneapolis, while hundreds of miles of highway were closed across North Dakota, Wyoming, South Dakota and Nebraska. Also, schools were closed across the region.
