Snowstorm hits area

A rare heavy snowstorm in October resulted in much of Sidney not having electricity during Sunday.
Mark Hanson, Montana-Dakota Utilities, reports that much of Sidney lost power Sunday morning and it was returned mid-afternoon.
“From what I understand, everything is pretty much back on except for maybe a few distribution lines and a home,” Hanson said on Monday morning. “For the most part, the wet snow pulling down on branches and trees causes the power outage.”
Hanson added the snow and big leaves were just too much weight on the lines.
The National Weather Service in Glasgow reports that Sidney received 7 inches of snow through Sunday afternoon.
Other readings included 13.6 inches in Glasgow, 16 inches near Fort Peck Lake, 9 inches in Billings and 5 inches in Glendive.
The amount of snow in Glasgow broke the city’s record of snow total for the date. Glasgow received 11.5 inches of snow=2 0on Oct. 12, 1924.
The snowstorm caused a halt for the sugar beet harvest in and around Richland County.
“It definitely stopped it for a while,” Russ Fullmer, agricultural manager at Sidney Sugars, said on Monday morning. “We’re just waiting right now for it to dry up some.”
Fullmer noted that about 80 percent of the crop is in. He doesn’t have any definite goal of when he hopes harvest is complete.
“When it’s done, it’s done,” Fullmer said. “There aren’t a lot of acres left out there.”
He added some of the larger growers have a few acres left and the Savage area is a little behind because they couldn’t dig Saturday.
“Once digging starts again, it will take about a week,” Fullmer said. “A lot of people are already done.”
From Oswald Chambers……..this certainly fits these times and all times…………
It is appalling to find spiritual people when they come into a crisis taking an ordinary common-sense standpoint as if Jesus Christ had never lived or died. It is man’s personal relationship that tells. When he dies he can take nothing he has done or made in his lifetime with him. The only thing he can take with him is what he is.
Proverbs 19:21 says……..
There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel——that will stand.
PRAISE GOD!!!!!
