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

Effective: Sat December 27, 2025, 10:19 PM
Expires: Sun December 28, 2025, 1:00 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.

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.
