KEY MESSAGES

- Dry and seasonally warm weather into early next week.

..Rain Slowly Ending Late Wednesday

After three days of stratus and on and off rain, the upper low responsible for the latest dreary weather will finally push northeast tonight. This will bring an end to rainfall. Cloud cover may not be as fast to leave, with stratus or fog forming overnight. Low level winds to look to remain a bit elevated, which may help limit the areal extent of fog and keep us with more stratus instead. Nonetheless, with recent rainfall, a few patches of fog are forecast overnight into Thursday morning across much of eastern ND into adjacent portions of northwestern MN.

Issued at 1055 PM CST Wed Nov 4 2026

Just as most sites had cleared out for the first time in a few days IFR to LIFR CIGS are spreading in from the north. GFK has already fallen to IFR with other sites soon to follow and Fargo the last by 08z. Minimum CIGS of 300-500ft will support isolated LIFR but mostly IFR through the morning. Clearing by the afternoon will finally allow for a longer period of VFR skies albeit still a change for some SCT clouds at MVFR levels. Gusts will be hit and miss tonight but as high as 25kts will occur for GFK, DVL, and FAR through 15z.
