RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - The northern Black Hills of western South Dakota are getting heavy snow for the second day in a row.

The National Weather Service posted a winter storm warning for the area Tuesday, with 4-8 inches of snow expected.

An earlier system that moved through the area Sunday night and Monday dropped two feet of snow eight miles south-southeast of Lead (LEED) and 15 inches on the town of Deadwood. Up to a foot fell in other parts of the Hills.



No travel was advised on some roads, with others labeled wet and slippery. The eastbound lanes of Interstate 90 were blocked for some time Tuesday morning between Sturgis and Spearfish because of an overturned semitrailer but were reopened by late morning.
