Hi there...

The national center now called the WPC (Weather Prediction Center) is looking at 2-5 inches of snow from Regina area southeast toward Grand Forks Fri aftn-night....
Getting to +3c today or near 40 in Grand Forks .... 39F has been the warmest so far this year and that occurred last Saturday. With the sun and light winds felt very warm....no coat weather for sure.

For North Dakota into northern Minnesota a powerful winter storm will hit the area Sunday with heavy snowfall....7 to 14 inches possible. Our winter will not end with many sites likely to break records for cold so late into April. For example the latest it has hit 50 in Fargo was April 17th in 1881.....Grand Forks the latest 50 was on April 21st in 1904. We are not forecast to even hit 40 through the next 7-10 days.....so the likelihood of those records being surpassed is very high.
Soil temperatures as measured at NWS Grand Forks ND office are still below 28 degrees down to 60 inches.....and this is expected to be latest spring snowmelt flooding along the Red River in over 100 years.
So this -AO we had/have is certainly causing some record breaking weather in terms of persistent cold. Snow in April isnt uncommon but this cold is.

Will start setting records next week for latest in the season not reaching 50 at several sites. Highest temp in Grand Forks this year has been 42. High today 32 Normal is 52.
