Special Weather Statement issued October 8 at 3:12AM CDT by NWS Grand Forks ND
Effective: Wed October 8, 2025, 3:12 AM
Expires: Wed October 8, 2025, 7:00 PM
Relative humidity values will drop to the 20 to 30 percent range along with a southeast wind increasing to 10 to 20 mph. Given the dry fuels in many areas, near critical fire weather conditions are expected for the afternoon. Any fire that does develop has the potential to quickly spread.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of
fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are
believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly
overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and
occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons,
and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
