Grand Forks, ND – A cold snap continues to grip the region, bringing light snow and dangerously low wind chills into early next week. Temperatures will hover between 0 and 15°F, with wind chills dipping as low as -20°F in some areas.
According to the National Weather Service, light snow is expected Sunday night, particularly along U.S. Highway 2 in the Devils Lake Basin. Drivers should prepare for slippery roads and reduced visibility late Sunday into Tuesday. Winds reaching 15 mph will make conditions feel even colder.
Sunday’s high temperatures are forecasted at 15°F, with lows plunging to single digits overnight. Snow chances will return Tuesday, with flurries likely in the morning and afternoon hours. Commuters and outdoor workers are advised to bundle up and limit skin exposure to avoid frostbite.
The week ahead shows little relief until Wednesday, when highs may climb into the low 20s. While snow accumulation is expected to remain light, icy roads and sidewalks could pose hazards for pedestrians and drivers alike.
Residents in Grand Forks County should monitor updated forecasts and prepare for persistent cold. Ensure pets have shelter, and use caution with space heaters indoors to avoid fire risks.
