Offices Closed Due to another Blizzard

Automated Announcement posted MARCH 30 2009

BODY SYSTEMS is closed "again" today due to a blizzard. This is yet another system and about the same that hit our area last week and closed down offices and UPS for 2 days last week delaying orders and shipments. We apologize for the problems this causes but UPS is closed, USPS is closed and our staff will be logging into our operating system remotely and if we can answer your questions or concerns we will contact you via email as soon as possible.

Once more, without good feeling.

For the second Monday in a row, a winter storm has settled over the Black Hills. Thick, wet snow began to fall in the middle of the night and picked up in intensity as dawn broke. Blizzard conditions were predicted for the Northern Hills.

The storm closed local schools and colleges, forced city offices to close and clogged streets. There was a fair amount of traffic in Rapid City at 6:30 a.m. but that seemed likely to lessen as the storm increased in ferocity and streets became more and more clogged.

The Rapid City Police Department and the Pennington County Sheriff's Office issued a no-travel advisory within the city and county due to dangerous road and weather conditions.

The only good news was that the wind shouldn't be as severe, which would mean fewer problems with drifting. The storm was predicted to abate by Monday night -- but more snow is expected Wednesday and again later in the week.

Spring? That's the season, according to the calendar. But look outside and tell yourself that.
