Another Weather Report

When I can't think of anything else to write about, there's always the weather ...

Looks like we'll be hit again.


ONE TWO PUNCH WINTER STORM FRIDAY THROUGH EARLY MONDAY.

A WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR ALL OF WEST AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA, FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY MONDAY MORNING.

THE FIRST PUNCH OF A POTENT WINTER STORM WILL AFFECT WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA FRIDAY AFTERNOON & FRIDAY NIGHT, SPREADING SNOW FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST. THERE MAY BE SOME FREEZING RAIN MIXED IN, ALONG & SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE FROM BISMARCK TO JAMESTOWN FRIDAY NIGHT.

SNOW TOTALS FROM THIS FIRST WAVE ARE EXPECTED TO BE AROUND SIX INCHES, ALONG & NORTH OF A LINE FROM WILLISTON TO BISMARCK.TO ELLENDALE. SNOW AMOUNTS OF 3 TO 6 INCHES ARE EXPECTED FROM BEACH THROUGH DICKINSON, TO FORT YATES ON SATURDAY.

SNOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE NORTH, BUT WE EXPECT THAT A BREAK IN THE SNOWFALL WILL OCCUR ACROSS THE SOUTH. THIS LULL IN THE STORM COULD LINGER INTO SATURDAY NIGHT.

THE SECOND PUNCH WILL OCCUR SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH EARLY MONDAY, AS THE LOW MOVES EAST. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE, ALTHOUGH SNOW AMOUNTS WILL BE LIGHTER WITH THIS SECOND PUNCH. WINDS WILL BE STRONGER, & THIS IS WHEN NEAR BLIZZARD CONDITIONS COULD DEVELOP. TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS FROM THIS ENTIRE EVENT WILL RANGE FROM 8 TO 14 INCHES.

We are hunkering down, got all our supplies, and are ready for it, I guess. Glad hubby is home and won't have to go back to work until Sunday afternoon.

Lynn, I can't seem to leave a comment at your boys sites, but you mention selling raspberry plants - what variety do you have and how much are you selling them for?

Heather,
You are speakng to someone in the production department, not in retail! I'll get someone to call you soon. Hopefully we have a current phone number for you. Our raspberry bushes originally came from Steve S's farm next to the Stover's in Larimore. If they grow up here, they will grow well anywhere!

I can't find your e-mail in my file either - wait on the phone call a I can't talk right now. I have been sick for 2 week, have a sinus infection and no voice. Lots of saline rinses, steam therapy and vitamin C and if you have suggestions I'd appreciate them!

Saw your pictures and wondered if you were also in North Dakota. My kids love the snow, it's the cold they (and I) don't like much.
