March 7th, 1998:

A winter storm tracked across South Dakota, resulting in 6 to 8 inches of heavy snow across most of central South Dakota from the evening of the 6th into the afternoon of the 7th. Some snowfall amounts included 6 inches at Fort Pierre and near Stephan, 7 inches at Blunt, Pierre, and Murdo, and 8 inches across southern Jones and Lyman counties.
