Yes, a winter storm was coming with a promised 12 inches of
snow.

WCCO TV Channel 4 in Minneapolis put Brainerd and Crow Wing County in

Snow Thrower Operator Mark cleared three inches of heavy snow from the

Mark and Paula headed out to do some shopping and encountered a snow pile, four or more times the

Mark took three inches of snow off the driveway, just after 4 pm, before
