Other districts in the region closed or switched to virtual learning. The University of North Dakota and NCTC shut their respective campuses down for the day. Grand Forks County told employees to stay home. The snow system forced the closure of I-94 from Fargo to Dickinson overnight. The stretch was reopened this morning (9:00 a.m.).
