The Coens got more help from Minnesota than ND to do the filming, so only some of the really snowy road scenes were filmed in ND - north of Grand Forks - because an early spring melt meant the drifts weren't high enough around the central Minnesota areas they were filming. And, wait, something basketball-related happened? I'm still digging out of the huge blizzard we had on Tuesday.
