- Windy and turning colder today. Temperatures falling through
  the day with scattered to isolated snow showers today.

- There remains a small chance for a snow squall or two.

- Very cold temperatures can be expected this weekend through
  early next week, with life threatening wind chills (as low as

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1235 PM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

Heavy bands of snow or blowing snow continue in the north
central, while clouds clear in the southeast. The Winter and
Wind Advisories continue. With winds staying elevated blowing
snow will continue in the north central through this evening.
Temperatures are falling too across the area.

UPDATE
Issued at 1010 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

We decided to just go ahead and change to a Winter Weather
Advisory from the International Border down to Highway 2, and
into Foster and Stutsman counties. This replaced the Wind
Advisory there. We may need to extend this south if conditions
worsen.

UPDATE
Issued at 945 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

Winds are gusting into the 50s (mph) across the area with snow
falling in the north half of the state. We have seen
visibilities drop to 1/4 mile at times. We have been closely
watching this for possible snow squall conditions. This threat
will continue through the day, with the snow moving south. The
Wind Advisory continues, however there is a possibility for a
Winter Weather Advisory instead, around HWY 2 and north. If the
reduced visibilities continue up north after the main snow
bands move through, that will probably be the direction we move.
The wind seems to peak around when the front edge of the cold
front moves through and then relaxes down to around 45 mph.

UPDATE
Issued at 618 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

Secondary cold front has entered the northwest and north
central, with 50 mph wind gusts now common to see there. In
addition, low level stratus and scattered light snow showers
have also developed into the northwest and north central behind
the frontal passage. Winds will continue to ramp up along and
behind the FROPA as it continues south this morning, along with
low stratus and scattered snow showers developing southward. Any
more robust snow shower will have the capability of
significantly reducing visibility for a short period when
combined with the strong northwest wind. This is mentioned in
the NPW (Wind Advisory Product), and will elevate messaging
if/as needed through the day today.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 350 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

Currently, zonal flow aloft with a strong mid level trough
dropping east-southeast from south central Canada into the
Northern Plains early this morning. Deep surface low is over
southern Manitoba, with its associated initial cold front now
through much of western and central North Dakota early this
morning. Winds remain robust across northwest and north central
North Dakota, with a few gusts to around 45 mph the past few
hours. Winds not as strong yet farther south, where gradient
forcing is weaker. Temperatures remain fairly mild in the low to
mid 30s still, which will be today's highs.

Secondary cold front nearing the International border, and will
surge quickly south/southeast across the local region now
through the remainder of the morning. As this occurs, winds will
remain strong across the north, and will rapidly increase with
the FROPA across the south with time. Much colder temperatures
will also develop from north to south along and behind the
front, with temperatures dropping through the day. As we move
through the afternoon, do expect winds to gradually taper off as
peak winds within the mixed layer weaken and pressure rises
start to subside. Wind advisory in effect through early this
evening, which looks good so no changes to headlines.

In addition to gusty winds developing farther south this
morning, we expect an area of low clouds initially, followed by
isolated to scattered snow showers, developing quickly
southward along and behind the secondary cold FROPA. Low stratus
has already moved into northwest and north central ND, with
radar returns across far south central Canada not far behind.
Could see light snow across my north with the next hour or two,
and I did opt to use coverage wording with low QPF potential.
Regarding snow squall chances, latest SPC analysis and RAP model
output (Sfc CAPE, Snow Sql Parameter, etc..) mainly highlight
western ND and more so the southwest for this morning. However,
with any snow shower coupled with the wind we're expecting,
brief periods of very poor visibility will be possible most
anywhere that sees decent snowfall. Will continue to mention
this in the Wind Advisory product as well.

Arctic airmass surges south into the Northern Plains through
this weekend and early next week, as a deep long wave trough
settles over much of North America. Multiple Arctic frontal
passages are expected Saturday through Monday, each bringing a
reinforced shot of very cold air. The coldest period is still
forecast to be Sunday-Monday, when we expect a prolonged period
of below zero temperatures, with overnight lows both Sunday and
Monday night nearing 30 below across the north and 20 below
south. Northern and eastern areas of the state look to remain
below zero from tonight through next Tuesday morning. Coupled
with the cold temperatures, winds remain somewhat breezy through
the MLK holiday weekend, with life threatening winds chills
still very much expected. We did decide to hold off on this
shift on issuing any cold weather headlines, with the focus on
today's winds and possible snow.

Pattern change takes place starting on Tuesday, when the upper
trough moves farther east into the eastern CONUS and a
progressive flow develops over our region. This will result in
temperatures moderating closer to average (highs in the 20s,
lows in the single digits above for us), along with
precipitation chances returning.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 1235 PM CST Fri Jan 17 2025

MVFR and IFR CIGs and VIS possible in the north central through
this afternoon with snow and blowing snow. Elsewhere, SCT and
BKN CIGs of MVFR and VFR. Winds will continue to gust around
40kts through the evening, calming to 20kts overnight from the
northwest. Skies overall will SCT out Saturday morning as very
cold temperatures return.
