Special Weather Statement issued December 27 at 10:19PM CST by NWS Bismarck ND

Expires: Sun December 28, 2025, 12:00 AM
A band of snow will continue to move across the state from west to east late this evening. Gusty winds will combine with the snow to reduce visibility as low as one half mile for an hour or two at any given location. Total snow accumulations around 1 to 2 inches are expected. Before the snow arrives in central North Dakota, a period of light freezing drizzle could produce a glaze of ice accumulation. If you have travel plans, prepare for difficult driving and rapidly changing conditions. Be sure to keep up to date on the latest road conditions, and carry a winter survival kit in your vehicle. Use extra caution and be prepared for reduced visibilities and slippery roads.
