* WHAT...Blizzard conditions expected. Snow accumulations of 6 to
  12 inches, with up to 18 inches possible within the heaviest
  band. Rainfall will occur across much of the southern Red River
  Valley initially, creating a sharp cut off from significant snow
  accumulation to much lighter amounts of 1 to 4 inches. The
  possibility also exists for ice accumulations of up to one tenth
  of an inch. Winds gusting as high as 55 mph will lead to
  blizzard conditions once the rain changes to snow.

* WHERE...Cass, Sargent, Ransom and Richland Counties.

* WHEN...From 7 PM this evening to 1 AM CDT Friday.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Travel will be dangerous to impossible. 
  Widespread blowing snow will significantly reduce visibility. 
  The hazardous conditions will impact the morning and evening 
  commute. Strong winds could cause extensive damage to trees and 
  power lines.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are
expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds
and poor visibilities are likely. This will lead to whiteout
conditions, making travel extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If
you must travel, have a winter survival kit with you. If you get
stranded, stay with your vehicle.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this blizzard warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Grand Forks, ND wrote its last area forecast discussion before this blizzard warning went out at Mar 13, 4:57 AM CDT, 16 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 13, 4:57 AM CDT, 16 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Grand Forks ND
457 AM CDT Wed Mar 13 2019

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 435 AM CDT Wed Mar 13 2019

Upper level trough over NM will move near Omaha by 12Z Thu. A mix of
rain and snow will move north out of SD later this morning or
early this afternoon. Mostly rain and some freezing rain will
occur roughly east of the line from Lidgerwood ND to Baudette MN.
The heaviest snow will fall roughly west of this line. Also north
winds will increase this evening and create blizzard conditions in
the western zones. The blizzard conditions will shift east
overnight. Expect wind gusts to 40 to 50 mph. Instabilities are
expected with some Mucape under 50j/kg noted near the dry slot and
along the heavy snow band.

Dry slot will move into the southeast zones later tonight with a
temporary reprieve from heavier rain in the southeast zones.

Farther east, the rain/snow line makes everything more uncertain.
Northwestern MN could see some heavy snow, but again there will
be a tight gradient along the rain/snow line which placement is
uncertain. Will keep the watch going in our east.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 435 AM CDT Wed Mar 13 2019

Thursday...Highly impactful winter system will be ongoing Thursday
morning, with deformation band precip across eastern ND into
northwestern MN. The heaviest QPF amounts will taper off from west
to east during the day on Thursday, but will bring a few more
inches of snow to the heavy snow band that looks to be centered on
a line from Valley City to Grand Forks to Roseau. Confidence in
more than 6 inches of snow, and likely more, in this area is high.
Less confidence in snow amounts in the Devils Lake Basin, where
there will be a tight gradient of very little and heavy snow.
However, there will be wind and temps did not get as warm on
Tuesday as farther east, so is still blowable. Winds will be
strong as the pressure gradient tightens. Cold air advection is
not super impressive, but there should be enough mixing during the
daylight hours to have some momentum transfer from the 40 to 45
kt winds at 925mb. Possibly even up to 850mb where winds are 50
kts plus. Even with warmer temperatures than recent systems, there
will be a large amount of blowing snow. Blizzard warning
throughout the day on Thursday for most of eastern ND and the far
northwestern MN counties where there is more open country.

Friday through Tuesday...Northwest flow aloft and less active
conditions for a time, although colder again. A few weak shortwave
clippers will move through, but there is a lot of variation between
models on timing and any precip amounts should be light. Kept
blended solution. Temps will be slightly below seasonal averages.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 704 PM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

VFR and MVFR conditions with lower MVFR ceilings at all terminals
except KDVL as lower stratus has moved in. Haze and mist has
continued at KFAR and will likely continue this evening into
tonight. Dense fog with visibility at or below a quarter miles
expected tonight at KBJI and KTVF with low, but maybe not quarter
mile visibility at KFAR. Conditions will deteriorate tomorrow as
the next winter storm moves in bringing in rain, snow, and blowing
snow leading to widespread IFR or worse conditions at most
terminals.

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of eastern North
Dakota, west central and northwest Minnesota.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Patchy dense fog may develop late tonight and Wednesday morning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

Historic Blizzard possible Wednesday night through Thursday.
Strong storm system will move into the plains with precipitation
spreading southwest to northeast late Wednesday afternoon through
Wednesday night. Locations south of I-94 may initially see rain or
even heavy rain, as well as light icing due to freezing rain
before transitioning to snow. This transition will result in a
large spread in snow amounts from the south to the north, with the
heaviest axis of snow currently more likely to occur from Valley
City to Grand Forks Wednesday evening through Thursday morning.
This may extended across far northwest Minnesota. Within this
heavy snow axis snow accumulations may range from 6 to 12", with
locally higher amounts possible. In addition, very strong north
winds gusting 45 to 60 mph may combine with blowing snow to
create significant drifting and blowing Wednesday night through
Thursday.

ground and blocked drains is not out of the question. The
precipitation will begin to change over to a rain/snow or freezing
rain mix late Wednesday night, then over to all snow on Thursday.
Some glazing of ice and 1 to 3 inches of snow will be possible.
Winds will increase with gusts to 50 mph, and some blowing snow
and reduced visibility in open areas will be possible Thursday.
