What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Bismarck, ND wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Feb 17, 11:56 AM CST, 1 hour 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 17, 11:56 AM CST, 1 hour 11 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
1156 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1156 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Main change with this update is the extension of the Wind Chill
Advisory until 3 PM CST for Ward, Renville, and counties east as
many NDAWN sites are still showing readings in the 30 below range.
Wind chills should begin to improve this afternoon as leading edge
of WAA continues to slowly move east, where light snow/flurries
are still occurring based on radar and observations.

A decision will be made on what to do with the High Wind Watch by
the next forecast update, but current thinking is to go with a
Winter Weather Advisory for counties immediately along the Grand
Forks forecast area for some blowing snow impacts.

UPDATE Issued at 947 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Expanded coverage and duration of PoPs for this morning with this
update as an area of light snow continues to slowly drift east
across central and northwestern portions of the CWA along the
leading edge of WAA. It is likely that PoPs will continue to need
tending to throughout the day as predictability is low due to no
significant forcing.

We also think at least some blowing snow is possible across
eastern portions of the CWA with the wind event tomorrow so we
introduced this to the forecast, but there remains a lot of
uncertainty as to the severity and coverage of BLSN. This will
also be re-evaluated throughout the day.

Plan is to let Wind Chill headlines expire at their respective
times.

UPDATE Issued at 609 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Removed the western tier of counties from the wind chill advisory,
with values currently above criteria. Also expanded low pops for
area of light snow moving through central ND at this time. Light
snow just reached the office in Bismarck here.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 500 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Main forecast challenges in the short term are the incoming
clipper which will bring very strong winds to much of the state
later tonight through Friday and ongoing wind chill advisories for
much of northern and eastern ND. Overall, deterministic and
ensemble guidance supports the ongoing forecast and high wind
watch, with no significant changes to the forecast.

With regard to the wind chill advisory, wind chills are more
marginal over northwest ND, so we may be able to drop some
counties over the next couple hours. Across the western part of
the state, warm advection associated with an approaching warm
front associated with the incoming clipper was bringing some light
snow and flurries to the region. This should continue drifting
eastward.

As mentioned before, all guidance continues to support strong
winds across the region beginning late tonight and lasting through
Friday as the clipper quickly moves across the state. Snowfall
potential continues to remain limited and has even been lowered a
small amount with the highest amounts of possibly an inch or two
near the Turtle Mountains. Regarding the wind, the ECMWF Extreme
Forecast Index continues to focus the highest threat from north
central ND through the eastern part of the state. EFI values for
wind speeds increased slightly from yesterday to .99 - 1.0 range
over east central ND, with EFI wind gust values of .90 - .95. In
addition, deterministic models continue to show 50-55 kt winds at
850mb through much of Friday, along with steep low level lapse
rates. Bottom line is that no changes were made to the High Wind
Watch area, which continues to look most favorable for reaching
warning criteria. Wind advisories will likely be needed over much
of the remainder of western and central ND. We continue to bring
higher pops associated with the clipper into northwest ND this
afternoon, spreading across the region through tonight. Precip
type may become mixed as ice aloft is lost, though amounts are
expected to remain on the light side.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 500 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Friday: After the first wave of light precip moves through
Thursday night, CAM guidance continues to suggest convective
showers, especially along and behind the cold front. This seems
reasonable given cyclonic flow aloft, steep low level lapse rates,
and mid-level frontogenetical forcing. An earlier run of the RAP
showed relatively high snow squall parameter values over SW ND
Friday morning, but the latest run has shifted it to Thursday
night. Regardless, potential impacts from snow shower development
will continue to be monitored. Savadel

Friday night through Wednesday:
The highlights this period are another clipper moving through
North Dakota/Minnesota and the larger system Monday and Tuesday.
Saturday looks to be the warmest day of the period. The
challenges this period are location/timing of the clipper
Saturday/Sunday and the bigger system on Monday, as well as where
the snow bands set up in both systems.

Friday overnight winds relax as the pressure gradient aloft
weakens and starts to shift westerly. Saturday will be a quiet
weather day with high confidence in above average temperatures
across the FA. Lows 30s in the northeast to mid 50s in the
southwest and much calmer winds.

Saturday night the next clipper moves in, the location of the low
differs between the models. Most ECMWF members have it coming in
over the ND/MN border, same with the NAM. Most GFS members have it
moving through North Dakota. For the snow band location, not much
has changed in the last 24 hours. Most GFS members keep the snow
north of the Canadian border and most of the ECMWF members have the
snow right on the International Border but some have it sliding
south through central North Dakota. Snow amounts are expected to
be low, both the ECMWF and NBM 4.1 have less than half an inch
between the International Border and Highway 2. The NBM 4.1
paints the Canadian border with an inch, where all the models
agree on the snow.

Sunday the temperatures look to drop during the day, depending on
the timing of a cold front dropping south out of Canada.
Therefore, the temperature spread is large for high temperature.
Strong CAA and strong pressure rises are associated with the
front. Again, not much has change with this in the last 24 hours.
The post frontal areas look to be in the single digits. Areas
ahead of the front will remain in the 20s and 30s. Pressure rises
do look a bit stronger with the front. NBM 4.1 has winds gusting
to 30 kts in the southern James River Valley Sunday afternoon.
High temperatures Monday are in the negative single digits across
the FA except the southwest which should just barely stay above
zero after the front fully moves through. We transition to split
flow aloft Sunday, ending the clipper parade for now.

For Monday, there is some agreement between the GFS and EMCWF
ensembles on location, both seem to target central South Dakota
and Minnesota for the heaviest snow. For North Dakota most
ensembles members for both models have lighter snow in the
southern part of the state. Snowfall amounts could be the biggest
unknown. The NBM 4.1 has a large spread in snowfall. The 10th to
90th percentile is 0 to 8 inches for most of the FA. Cluster
analysis show a large spread in QPF as well. Synoptically the best
lifting is over western and central South Dakota with negative
Q-vectors and the right entrance region of the jet streak. It
would makes sense that the highest snowfall would stay south of
us. An Arctic high pressure moves in Tuesday keeping temperatures
in the single digits below and above zero. Confidence in this is
fairly high with the temperatures spread in the NBM being low.
Wednesday morning a shortwave looks to move through with a small
ridge right behind. No precipitation is expected as of now with
that. Smith

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1156 AM CST Thu Feb 17 2022

Scattered snow showers will move east across the area today with
occasional MVFR ceilings and visibilities possible at all TAF
sites. This evening through Friday morning, another round of snow
is expected with again MVFR ceilings and visibilities and most
likely north and east. This round of snow will be followed by
strong to very strong northwest winds which will persist through
18Z Friday.
