SCENES FROM THE DECEMBER 18, 2000 SNOWSTORM IN LINCOLN.
The blowing snow reduced visibility.  It was mid afternoon on east campus of UNL, the skies were actually clear. Although parked here for only a few hours, the blowing snow has drifted several feet deep around the front of this truck. 
The snow blowing off a business near 48th and Holdredge St. has drifted deeply on an overhand and onto a parked car. Blowing snow cover is being caught by the tall grass and the cars parked on east campus of UNL.
Although sunny just a few moments ago, a strong gust of wind has picked up the loose snow and reduced visibility. Its late afternoon, the sky is clear but blowing snow across Pioneers Blvd. just south of the Holmes Lake golf course reduces visibility.
