  locally higher in very narrow snow bands. Winds gusting as high as

  Minnesota, northeast Nebraska, and central, east central, south
  central, and southeast South Dakota.

  that are prone to blowing snow. Strong winds could cause tree
  damage.

  conditions may change rapidly over short distances.

Slow down and use caution while traveling. The latest road
conditions for the state you are calling from can be obtained by
