Discussion
Through the day we started off with partly to mostly cloudy skies followed by clearing. By this afternoon, we were seeing mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies with temperatures climbing well into the 50s for most of the area. Though daytime highs were significantly cooler than yesterday (16 degrees in Bismarck/Mandan) and nowhere near record highs, temps were still well above today's average (avg 40/19).
There will be a decent NW to SE flow over the Dakotas, tonight. This motion will continue to bring a slight chance for isolated light showers/flurries. This chance for hit & miss precip will return tomorrow and not everyone will get wet.
Otherwise, there is a Wind Advisory in effect for parts of SW ND, until 6:00pm mdt. This alert was issued for Slope, Hettinger, Bowman & Adams counties from Wednesday morning through Wednesday evening.
Sustained winds out of the Northwest 20-30mph with gusts to 45mph are possible. Travel may become difficult, especially for those driving high profile vehicles. Also, working on elevated structures may be hazardous.
Headlines for this evening include increasing clouds with a few light showers/flurries and NW winds becoming light and variable, before speeding up again tomorrow. Tonight & tomorrow morning will be cool. Daily temps will continue to fall through the next few days and winds will remain moderate to strong and gusty at times. A stationary front over the upper- Midwest & Great Lakes region will move across the Dakotas Thursday & Friday as it fizzles out. This means there will be a chance for snow with no significant accumulation expected.
Through the rest of tonight & Wednesday
We will start off with fair to partly cloudy skies and a few isolated (light) showers & flurries. Precip chances will be low through tonight with winds calming before Midnight. Temperatures will fall into the 20s for most of our area and it will feel cool.
Tomorrow will start off cool with temperatures climbing through the 30s and topping out in the mid to upper 40s and lower 50s for some. We will see more increasing clouds, leading to mostly cloudy skies. Winds will pick up, becoming moderate to strong and out of the NW. There will be a few isolated showers moving through our area during the midday & afternoon hours. Any rain/mix shower activity will be isolated with no significant accumulation expected.

7day planner
We will see gradually increasing clouds with a few showers becoming a mix & snow as temps fall below the freezing mark tonight. Wednesday & Thursday, hit & miss light rain/snow is expected with cooler air over the area. Temperatures will mostly be in the 40s during the next couple of days. Late Friday, we will begin to see gradual clearing, followed by more sunshine and a warming trend through the weekend and into next week. Through the latter half of our work week, temperatures will be close to average for this time of the year.
Wednesday, we will continue to see partly to mostly cloudy skies with in & out clouds and a chance for hit & miss rain/mix showers. Highs 42-52 with a moderate to strong wind out of the NW 15-25mph G40.
Wednesday night, expect partly to mostly cloudy skies and a cool feel. Lows 25-32 with a moderate to strong wind out of the NW.
Thursday, we will see mostly cloudy skies with a chance for scattered light wintry mix/snow as an occluded front moves, East to West, back through the Eastern ND and into Central ND. This front will be dissipating as it moves across the state. Highs 38-46 with a moderate to strong wind out of the NW, becoming gusty at times.
Thursday night, it will feel cool with mostly cloudy skies and a few lingering flurries in Central & Western ND as this front fizzles out. Lows in the 20s with a NW wind 5-15mph.
