No travel advisory issued in Northwest Minnesota

High winds and limited visibility create hazardous driving conditions



BEMIDJI, Minn. – (12 p.m.) The Minnesota Department of Transportation advises no travel on highways in northwestern Minnesota due to high winds causing blowing snow and zero visibility. The no travel advisory includes the following roads:



Highway 1- North Dakota border to Thief River Falls
Highway 2- Crookston to East Grand Forks
Highway 9- Crookston to Ada
Highway 11- North Dakota border to Karlstad
Highway 75- Perley to Canadian border
Highway 200- Highway 75 to Ada
Highway 220 – Climax to Alvarado
Highway 175- North Dakota border to Highway 59


No Travel Advised means that the visibility has been reduced to the point that it is very dangerous to travel. Motorists are advised not to travel in these areas until the high winds subside and conditions improve.

Motorists should prepare for changing weather and monitor road conditions at 511mn.org. Drivers should plan accordingly with an emergency supply kit and clothing for extreme cold.

MnDOT snowplow operators will do their part to make highways safe and motorists should remember to:

Stay alert for snowplows, which turn or exit frequently and often with little warning
Stay back at least 10 car lengths behind the plow. Don’t drive into a snow cloud.
Slow down to a safe speed for current conditions.
Turn on your headlights and wear your seat belt.
Turn off the cruise control.
Be patient and remember snowplows are working to improve road conditions for your trip.
Don’t drive distracted.
