Widespread heavy snow in most areas tonight into Monday. Gusty east winds tonight turning west and increasing to 30-40 mph with higher gusts Monday afternoon. Travel will be difficult if not impossible at times. #ndwx #mnwx

Absolutely mesmerizing view of "gravity waves" propagating along the "tropopause," or effective ceiling of the lower atmosphere, following the eruption of #HungaTonga this morning. The waves result from the plume's buoyancy bumping against the tropopause and causing ripples.

Ground #blizzard scenes from #Northdakota this morning along I-29. I think that's blizzard warning number five this season?! I'm guessing we're the #sundog and blizzard capital of the lower 48 this year. #ndwx #stormhour NWS Grand Forks

A #ValentinesDay poem for #WxTwitter: Outbounds are red, Inbounds are green. When they come together, Get your warning screen! From my nerdy heart to yours.

March 14 vs March 21 in Grand Forks. A lot of melt in one warm week up here. And the Grinch is almost free!

It's April 13th. Why do I live here again?

Hard to believe this was 25 years ago. I was a senior in college at UNL, watching from afar. I need to remember when I go out and enjoy the Greenway this summer, that this was the price paid for it.

Neat weather phenomenon alert 🚨 A lake breeze circulation formed around the vast expanse of flood waters along the Red River north of Grand Forks. Notice how a line of cumulus clouds forms just east of the "lake" and then treks east through the afternoon. #ndwx #mnwx

Watch the Northern Plains #snowmelt over the past week. Pierre, SD melted a foot of snow in 6 days, with daytime highs warming from 29˚ on Apr. 5 to *94˚* Tuesday. Fargo, ND melted 10" of #snow cover in 6 days, but still has a foot on the ground. #ndwx #sdwx

Great news everyone. The City of Grand Forks is saving a ton of money on fuel for our snowplows today. Stay safe today.

My every-shutdown vent that if they (the House) are gonna shut down government, they should be forced to shut it ALL down. All or nothing. Ground planes. Keep military in barracks or at home. Turn off weather radars. They'd learn to resolve their 💩 REALLY quick.

We had a special guest take our 1 pm snow observation today 🦖. Tiny arms didn't stop this T-Rex from measuring 4 inches still on the ground in Grand Forks, ND. He was happy to report no snow fell between 7 am and 1 pm, either. #ndwx #mnwx #HappyHalloween
