In The Moment ... April 10, 2019 Show 553 Hour 2

Several counties in southeast South Dakota are saying that some of their county roads and highways are in such condition that they can't put plows on them when this week's snow hits.

Barry Van Osdel toured roads in Yankton County on Tuesday. He's a County Supervisor for Gayville Township.
