Blowing & Drifting Snow Impacts S RRV Today

Next Wintry System: Tuesday

Reduced visibility from blowing snow, drifting snow, and reportedly icy and snow covered roads will create hazardous travel conditions in far southern Red River Valley through the afternoon. Use extra caution if traveling in this area.

The bulk of the moisture overnight shifted well south into southern Minnesota. Thus in many areas snowfall amounts were not as high as anticipated. Gusty north winds to 40 mph will create blowing and drifting snow impacts in the southern Red River valley today, south of Fargo. Additional snow this morning, less than an inch in far southeast ND & west central MN.

Outlook shows winter hanging on today thru Tuesday. Warm front moving in Tuesday, but ahead of it will be a strong south-southeast wind and a period of snow and in some areas mixed with freezing rain (Eastern ND). Then milder air Wednesday and Thursday.
