...A SIGNIFICANT WINTER WEATHER IS POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH

SATURDAY NIGHT...



There is increasing confidence for a significant winter storm 

impacting much of western and central North Dakota and the

Northern Plains this holiday weekend. 



Thanksgiving morning and afternoon are expected to be dry. Light 

snow, possibly mixed with light freezing drizzle, is forecast 

Thanksgiving evening through Friday afternoon.



The threat increases for heavy snow and strong winds Friday night

through Saturday night, with blizzard conditions possible. There 

is a greater likelihood that southern parts of North Dakota will 

see the most significant impacts. Travel may become very 

hazardous across the region. Those with travel plans should keep 

up to date at www.weather.gov/bismarck.
