Winter Storm Xenia produced whiteout conditions across large swaths of North Dakota, South Dakota, and northeast Wyoming on the final day of March 2014.

Monday morning, visibility was reduced to 10 feet in parts of North Dakota. Drifts of 5-6 feet were observed in Roseau, Minn. Winds gusted to 64 mph at the Rapid City, S.D. airport, and up to 58 mph near Oakes, N.D.

Whiteout conditions prompted a shut down of Interstate 29 from Brookings, S.D. to the Canadian border, and Interstate 94 from Fargo to Bismarck, N.D.

Xenia prompted the 11th separate blizzard warning in the winter season issued by the National Weather Service in Grand Forks, N.D.
