A record-setting snowstorm slammed the Dakotas and western Minnesota for three days last week, in mid-October, before fading over the weekend. North Dakota got hit the hardest. It was a storm that will be hard for many people to forget. Last week's snowstorm was truly historic for Bismarck, North Dakota, in a few ways. First, daily record snowfall records were set for Oct. 10, 11 and 12, with accumulations of 7.1, 6.1 and 3.7 inches, respectively. The snowfall on Oct. 10 and 11 now rank as the fourth- and fifth-snowiest October days on record for the capital city. Ken Simosko, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service (NWS) office in Bismarck, told FreightWaves that the storm also set a record for the highest three-day single-storm snowfall total for the city – 16.9 inches from Oct. 10 through 12. Crop Damage "I'm expecting massive crop losses – as devastating as we've ever seen," said Jon Nelson, a state lawmaker who farms several hundred acres near Rugby in north-central North Dakota.

The looming harvest woes are the latest headache for U.S. farmers facing years of low crop prices, swelling grain stockpiles and declining farm incomes made worse by a trade war with China that has slashed exports. Only 58% of U.S. corn was mature as of Oct. 6 and just 15% was harvested, according to the latest data from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). North Dakota’s crop was furthest behind, with just 22% of corn mature and none harvested as of Sunday, while South Dakota’s corn was 36% mature with 2% harvested. U.S. soybeans were only 14% harvested as of Sunday, 20 percentage points behind the average pace, USDA data showed. North Dakota and Minnesota beans were just 8% gathered while Iowa’s and South Dakota’s crop was only 5% harvested.
