I LUV NORTH DAKOTA!

I luv North Dakota. Just want to make that clear at the outset. However, we just had a blizzard although it couldn't technically be called a blizzard but it was a blizzard. Snow. Wind. Cold. It was a blizzard. The University of North Dakota even delayed classes for two hours Tuesday, Nov. 30. But today? Gorgeous! Sunny. Crisp. Beautiful sparkly snow everywhere. North Dakota at its wintery finest.

So what comes across the weather page? Special Weather Statement
...ACCUMULATING SNOW POSSIBLE ON FRIDAY...

A WINTER STORM SYSTEM WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST AND MOVE THROUGH
THE REGION ON FRIDAY. AT THIS TIME...THE LIKELIEST AREA TO RECEIVE
ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL WILL BE FROM THE DEVILS LAKE BASIN INTO
SOUTHEASTERN NORTH DAKOTA AND WEST CENTRAL MINNESOTA. SNOWFALL
ACCUMULATIONS OF 2 TO 5 INCHES APPEAR POSSIBLE. THE POTENTIAL
EXISTS FOR A NARROW BAND OF 6 OR MORE INCHES...ALTHOUGH THE EXACT
LOCATION OF THIS POTENTIAL HEAVIER BAND OF SNOW IS UNCERTAIN.

Stay tuned, Weather Bunnies. This could get interesting.
