A Cold Night Ahead

Freezing Rain Potential Saturday

Cold temperatures are expected tonight, with the coldest wind chill values expected over northern and eastern North Dakota, with readings dipping down to around 35 below in some areas. If venturing outside wear appropriate winter apparel, and pack a winter survival kit if traveling.

There is increasing confidence for light freezing rain across western and parts of central North Dakota Saturday morning, with medium chances for at least a glaze of ice accumulation. Light accumulating snow could also fall prior to the freezing rain. Precipitation will shift into the eastern half of the state Saturday afternoon, mostly falling as snow.
