National Weather Service

The National Weather Service in Bismarck has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for a handful of counties in North Dakota until 10 p.m. Monday evening, May 30th.

It was May 16, 1996. And it was not a fun time to be in North Dakota.

Dry and windy conditions present a fire danger for the area through Wednesday (4/6) evening. Winds gusting up to 45 mph are expected this evening and over night into Wednesday morning.

A system moving through the area will being with it very strong winds, gusting up to 50 mph on Friday.

The National Weather Service in Bismarck has issued a wind chill advisory for much of the listening area, beginning tonight, January 15th, at 10 p.m.

By the looks of it, the area could have a white Christmas. The National Weather Service has issued a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY, until 6 p.m. Wednesday (12/16) and with this system, the area could get as much as 7 inches of snow.

It wasn't just hot across North Dakota on Friday, August 14th. In two major cities, it was actually record-setting hot!

This should come as no surprise for North Dakotans - the weather is going to change and change in a big way this coming weekend.

The National Weather Service is once again using the term DANGEROUS in order to make the point - temperatures will be in the life-threatening range for the area Friday night into Saturday morning.

The entire state will be going through some changes, especially in the Bismarck-Mandan area. Wind gusts will kick up to speeds of 50+ MPH, Thursday.
