Bismarck, N.D. (AP) Snow has fallen in Dickinson in June, the
first time in nearly 60 years the city has seen snow past May.
National Weather Service meteorologist Janine Vining in Bismarck
says there were unofficial reports of a couple of inches of snow in
Dickinson on Saturday.
Vining says snow in North Dakota in June is uncommon, though
it's not unheard of. She says other parts of the state have seen
June snow within the past 10 years.
Williston and Bismarck had received only rain as of
mid-Saturday, but Vining said snow was possible in those cities
later in the day.
