| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A strong cold front moved south from Canada across eastern North Dakota and northwest Minnesota, creating ground blizzard conditions. The front moved quickly from north to south, driven by a strong pressure gradient, but dropped little snow. Near zero visibilities were created as the wind picked up the top crust of snow. After the initial burst of intense wind, visibilities slowly improved. Devils Lake had a gust to 48 mph and Fargo had a gust to 53 mph. |
