Storm Could Push Sioux Falls Snow Total above Last Winter’s

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — Sioux Falls is gearing up for another big snowstorm — one that's likely to push the season snowfall total past the total for all of last winter.

The city got just under 32 inches of snow last winter. So far this winter, just under 30 inches has fallen. And the National Weather Service says Sioux Falls could get 6-8 inches more by the end of Tuesday.

City Street-Fleet Manager Galynn Huber says he's already had to ask the City Council for more money for snow removal this winter. He says the city averages about four snowfalls over more than half a foot each winter, and this winter there's already been three of those.

Huber says "it's been a very active winter for us."
