However, that is exactly what is contained in the latest long-range issuance from the Climate Prediction […]

Howling winds reached gusts of more than 50 miles per hour in the Minot region Tuesday morning. A peak gust of 54 miles per hour was recorded at the Minot International Airport prior […]

It's Snow Record

MINOT — You shovel it. Push it. Despise it. Curse it. Maybe even take a little pride in digging out of it. Ah, you persevered a whopper of a North Dakota blizzard, and in late April of all things, and have a true tale of a real record breaker to enthrall listeners throughout the ages. […]

Snow, Moisture, and Melt

MINOT — More good than bad, but that can change in the coming days. “This is going to be interesting.

NWS Warns of Crippling Blizzard

BISMARCK — It's the real deal, no escaping this one. A spring storm that is poised to tear into North Dakota has the potential to bury the record book under a massive dump of snow. Add to it plunging temperatures and winds up to 60 miles per hour, and you have all the ingredients of […]

Say It Ain’t Snow!

Late Season Storm Lurking BISMARCK — It’s that time of year. Not really spring and not really winter, but somewhere in between.
