Killdeer Bypass Completed -- October 1, 2016

Link here. This is the fourth major bypass I am aware of -- Williston, Watford City, Alexander, and, now, Killdeer.

From the linked article: the state has invested a total of $420 million on construction of truck routes around the four cities noted above and also New Town and Dickinson.

Hurricane Matthew
Category 4

US evacuates family members from Gitmo. This category 4 hurricane is likely to hit Gitmo directly. One wonders if this will be the event that permanently closes the prison. There would be a precedent: the volcanic eruption some decades ago that closed our US air base in the Philippines. 

Reminder: track this hurricane at winds.
