North Dakota’s February Forecast: Cold, Wind, and Maybe More Snow
If you’ve been loving this unusually nice weather in the last week of January, good for you! Just don’t get too comfortable—Old Man Winter heard you were enjoying yourself and decided to do something about it.
Brace Yourself: February’s First Week Looks Cold
According to the National Weather Service in Bismarck, the first week of February is shaping up to be a real teeth-chattering experience. We’re talking frigid temperatures and some serious wind chills that’ll make you regret ever leaving your cozy blanket fort. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s a slight chance for above-normal precipitation, which is just fancy talk for “it might snow more than you want it to.”
Get Ready: Winter’s About to Make a Comeback!
So, before winter reminds us who’s boss, take a few precautions while the weather is still nice:
- Vehicle check - Make sure your car is winter-ready with good tire tread, full windshield wiper fluid, and a full gas tank.
- Emergency kit - Ensure your emergency kit is stocked with items like food, water, batteries, flashlights, and first aid supplies.
- Gas up that snowblower – because nothing’s worse than pulling the cord 37 times in subzero temps.
- Dig out those warm gloves and jackets – unless you enjoy the thrill of frostbite.
- Brace yourself for the cold – mentally, physically, and emotionally.
For now, though, enjoy what’s left of the January warmth. Over the next few days. take a walk, soak up the sun (while it exists), and maybe even pretend spring is just around the corner. Just don’t put away your winter gear yet—you’re going to need it!
