The snowstorm moving east from the northern Rockies dumped nearly a foot of snow in places in northwestern North Dakota after moving into the state on Wednesday, with more snow expected later on Thursday for southwestern and central North Dakota. As much as 11 inches of snow fell near Stanley in northwestern North Dakota, according to the National Weather Service.
Below-normal cold temperatures are forecast to follow, as low as single digits and possibly even below zero in low-lying areas, Johnson said. The snowpack will enhance the cold temperatures, he said.

Farmer and rancher Kenny Graner drove to Mandan on Thursday for truck parts and noticed the road conditions go from a trace of snow and mist to more snow accumulating on his route.Earlier this week, his family began shifting cattle around into pastures with natural protection and springs for water, he said. The family was about 90% done with their corn harvest before the storm.
