The main area to keep an eye on for a little blowing/drifting will be on the east side of the valley, but for most we'll then just be heading to cloudy skies this afternoon. Snow doesn't stay away for long though, I'm tracking who could see another inch or two to start the week.

Right now, the best chance for low visibility continuing into Sunday AM tends to be across the northern valley with the most consistent snow. As snow moves out we will keep an eye on pockets of low vis. for Lakes Country as well, that gradually improve through the day. (2/2)

In the clouds ahead of the cold temperatures, we are seeing flurries leading to light accumulations. Fargo's seen around 0.2" overnight. While the flakes are flitting under the radar beam, we are seeing the most consistent light snow now out over lakes country. #mnwx #ndwx

And while we are seeing a few flakes flit out from the cloud deck we have moving into the valley, they're not the cause of any travel headaches this weekend. We are keeping an eye on where travel destinations will be impacted though by the storm tracking across the southern US.

Travel remains hazardous as we head through the morning, with the whiteout conditions right around the valley, with frequent visibility around or under 0.1 Miles, but in the breaks we are seeing some sundogs to start off this brutal Saturday. #ndwx #mnwx

That wind today is also bringing in brutally cold wind chills, in the -20s and -30s for most today. Then tonight, we are tracking another round of near-blizzard conditions that will be likely to continue for much of the morning on Sunday. #ndwx #mnwx

Also, as the front moves through, that will clear out the clouds later on this afternoon, sending some sunshine our way. Tonight's the first sunset after 5:00 pm for Fargo for 2026, and we'll be seeing that sunrise on Weekend First News before ya know it. #ndwx #mnwx

For the rest of eastern North Dakota? A bit of a different story. You may get a few flurries here or there, but not as consistent as we are seeing to the north and east. Gradually through the afternoon, the flakes will taper off, but we will still have the wind into the evening.

The best chances for a wintry mix tomorrow will be across the northern valley, with more widespread chances by Monday night into Tuesday. Then late in the week, we are tracking another few rounds of snow possible, with temperatures tumbling into next weekend (2/2) #ndwx #mnwx

While there is likely at minimum freezing drizzle for much of the region (seen with the Special Weather Statement), the warmer air streaming in from the south means the higher chance of ice accumulations will be northern ND and Lakes Country (Winter Weather Advisory) #ndwx #mnwx

So what can we expect for precip types? Well today we have flurries (powered sugar), but tomorrow we are tracking the chance for some sleet (sprinkles), and by Tuesday, we may get some freezing rain and a glaze of ice (glazed). #ndwx #mnwx

Even though accumulations will not be the higher totals we see to the southeast for much of our region, it will still pack a punch. Whiteout conditions will be most likely through the afternoon and early evening, so use extreme caution if you *must* travel today. #ndwx #mnwx
