The April 2019 North American blizzard[1][2] was a historic blizzard that occurred in the month of April in the Great Plains and the Midwest. As strong winds and heavy snowfall were anticipated to produce widespread reductions in visibility, a blizzard warning was issued from northeastern Colorado to southwestern Minnesota, including several large cities. Denver, Cheyenne, Mitchell and Kearney were all included.[3][4] Winds gusted as high as 107 mph (172 km/h) at Pueblo West and more than 30 inches (76 centimeters) of snow fell in Wallace, South Dakota.[5]
