KEY MESSAGES

- On and off Lake Effect snow southeast of Lake of the Woods through Saturday. 1-3 inches of snow is possible for places from Baudette to Big Falls

- Snow Friday night into Saturday across far southeast North Dakota with a 30 percent chance of more than 3 inches.

- Below average temperatures continue into next week.

..Colder Weather

While temperatures have cooled the past few days behind the departing low pressure system on Tuesday, the largest drop in temperatures will come behind the Saturday system this weekend. The coldest air of the season so far will settle in to end the weekend and start the work week. Low temperatures Monday morning are forecast to be below zero across the entire FA, but depending on the exact placement of the high pressure Sunday night, temperatures may manage to get a bit colder then what is shown right now. We should moderate a little bit next Tuesday/Wednesday as ensembles hint at a wave coming through, before northwest flow dumps another chunk of arctic air into the Northern Plains at the tail end of the forecast period late next week.

AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY/

Issued at 1134 AM CST Thu Nov 27 2025

A cloud deck is pushing southward into the area from Canada. Ceilings upstream have generally remained VFR, with a few pockets of MVFR. Kept TAFs VFR except for KBJI, where MVFR ceilings will prevail through the evening hours. Winds will remain under 15 knots throughout the TAF period, northerly today, switching to the southeast very late in the TAF period at KDVL. There are hints in model guidance that fog could develop tonight, with the most at risk terminal being KFAR. Too much uncertainty at this time to add any mention in the TAF, but it will need to be monitored moving forward.
