After a largely snow-free winter, Old Man Winter returned in a big way, dumping up to 24 inches of snow in Custer County Sunday into Monday as the entire region was engulfed by Winter Storm Xylia.
The storm caused late openings and closures throughout the county. Custer School District called off school Monday for both the Custer and Hermosa schools, and the Custer County Courthouse closed as well. By Monday morning city and county crews were hard at work opening roads, which created massive windrows in downtown Custer.
