The sudden cold snap and snowfall have led to Minneapolis resembling ghost towns, as crowds clear out due to the wintry conditions. The Minnesota State Patrol has shared critical winter driving safety tips following over 800 storm incidents, emphasizing the importance of preparedness and caution on the roads. Similarly, the St. Cloud area in Minnesota saw up to 4.8 inches of snow, with brutal cold following the major snowstorm.
As the winter storm approaches, it is essential for residents in affected areas to stay informed, prepare for potential disruptions, and prioritize safety.
