Alert Type: Blowing Snow Advisory
Issued or Partial Issued States: North Dakota
Site: National Weather Force has issued a Blowing Snow Advisory effective Tuesday, January 18, 2022
Date Issued: 1/17/22 at 1:45 pm Central
Forecast: A system that moved through the area last week dropped a lot of snowfall in the area. Some of it on the surface is not iced up and with the wind gusts projecting on the NWF Wind Gust model to be over 45+ mph, we could easily see this surface snow blow around like the dust does in the Desert Southwest. Blowing snow conditions that will reduce visibility and impact travel will be likely on your Tuesday.
NWF Blowing Snow Advisory is issued when ground snow is expected to blow around with the higher winds, reducing visibility and causing a possible life-threatening travel hazard.
