  • A blizzard warning is now in effect for eastern ND. This video was filmed while traveling southbound on I-29 from Hillsboro, ND, to Fargo, ND. Visibility and road conditions deteriorated quickly and plummeting temps helped blowing snow freeze to the roadways. I-29 was a sheet of ice at times, causing several vehicles to end up in the ditch.
    Shot Description
    1) Complete whiteout at times on Interstate 29 near Hillsboro, ND
    2) Driving into rest area along I-29, scenes of people in strong winds
    3) I-29 completely iced up, blowing snow with slow travel 10 miles north of Fargo
    4) Several clips of vehicles off the roadway in Fargo, ND
    5) I-29 ground blizzard driving

      That's what you should do. Does not put other people's lives on the line trying to rescue you out in the weather which people were warned about for days. The DOT has updated info almost every 10-15 min ......be safe.....be smart...care about others whose jobs are to keep you from harm✌️❤️🚑🚒🚓🚧🚧 ground blizzards kill

    I'm here from Texas on a work project. They sent me up here in a 2 wheel drive truck, with summer tires. I weighed the bed down with heavy plate steel and sand bags. My first time experiencing a ground blizzard.
    I can't believe some BONEHEADS drive as fast as they do in conditions like this. It's tragic that so many people lose their lives from not being careful.

      It can be frightening to say the least. Takes all the courage you've got and then some. For some, it's a good drive home from work, so they'll do their level best to get home to their families.
      While the weatherman can give predictions, you can still get caught unexpectedly having to drive in these conditions. So, yeah, thanks for the prayers!!

      2. .... Yes, seriously, people really are in that big of a hurry. And, if they spin out or go in the ditch, it's your fault because you were in their way and\or were going to slow.
