Sleet, snow, ice, thunder, winds, waves...this April winter storm seems to have it all.
Schools cancelled classes (or implemented an e-learning day), many organizations and businesses are closed, and MnDOT and the Cook County Highway Department are out working on the roads.
Some minor flooding in downtown Grand Marais is occurring, as well as lots of ice and gravel near the shoreline.
