Submissions now open for MnDOT’s latest Name a Snowplow contest
Brush off your best puns and defrost your pop culture references, because the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s Name a Snowplow contest is back.
Submissions for the 2025 contest are open through noon on Dec. 19. MnDOT staff will review and whittle down the submissions, then open the process to a public vote in January. Eight names will be chosen, one for each of MnDOT’s districts.
There are a few rules for submissions: one per person, no vulgarities, no political names and no past winners. They’re also limited to 30 characters.
Last year’s winners are below.
- We’re Off To See The Blizzard
- Snowtorious B.I.G.
- Plowabunga!
- Anthony Sledwards
- You’re Welcome
- Don’tcha Snow
- Skol Plow
- I Came, I Thaw, I Conquered
Other past winners include Blader Tot Hotdish, Beyonsleigh and Ctrl Salt Delete. This is the sixth year of the contest.
MnDOT has about 800 snowplows across the state.

Kids Kick Off Snow Boogers While Winter Blankets Central Minnesota
It already feels like it has been a long winter.. but it’s only December 8th.
Central Minnesota has already seen 9.9″ of snow this year and, despite the fact that is still below an average winter in Minnesota historically, it is more than we had seen the last couple of winters to this point.
Additionally, the blanket of snow across the state is making the air 11 degrees colder than normal, per WJON.
Since it looks like winter is here to stay for the time being, let’s talk about some of the low-key things we love about winter in the Land of 10,000 Frozen Lakes.

SNOW BOOGERS
Oh, man do I love kicking a good snow booger off of a car. My kids love it too, to the point where I have to remind them that kicking them off of a stranger’s car is counter to typical Midwest etiquette… you have to ask first!
BLASTING INTO HYPERSPEED
There’s something so mesmerizing about driving at night in a rural area with a snowstorm happening, specifically the kind of snow with the giant flakes. When the flakes get lit up by the headlights I feel like I am piloting the Millennium Falcon or something. It can get a little hypnotizing even!
DRIVING ON A *FULLY* FROZEN LAKE
This seems like a bridge too far for a lot of people I meet that aren’t from this area, specifically west-coasters and those from the south. They just can’t wrap their mind around just hopping in the truck and going straight across the lake to the other side.
