The day started out with light snow and swirling wind whipping snow from trees and making for low visibility. Then by 8 am, the sun came out and it was a beautiful day! The temperature at game time today was 27 degrees F. The number of attendees was lower than normal due to the swirling snow\low visibility north of Rapid City.
