The April storm leads to school delays on the second day, online learning days in Minnesota

Many school districts in the center and northern Minnesota start the lessons Thursday morning – or go to online learning – to give the crews more time to clear the streets and highways, after a spring storm has dropped more than one snow foot.

Certain districts which initially declared late departures have later increased to online learning days or canceled courses, because the road conditions did not improve.

The Minnesota Ministry of Transport reported on Thursday morning ice roads in most of two thirds of the northern state – but not in twin cities.

Authorities responded to dozens of accidents and spinuts in the midst of snowy conditions on Wednesday. The storm caused Blizzard warnings for the North Shore Wednesday afternoon and evening.
