.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 342 AM CDT Sun Sep 21 2025
Areas of fog have developed early this morning mainly from the
James River Valley (mostly along and north of I94) into the
Turtle Mountains. A few obs are reporting dense fog, though
overall, dense fog seems localized. For example, while the
Jamestown airport has been reporting quarter mile visibility off
and on, webcams along the interstate show fog that is patchy in
nature and possibly shallow. Either way, will continue to
monitor this morning for more widespread deterioration in
visibility. Fog should dissipate by mid to late morning.
All in all, there really isn`t a whole lot to talk about for
this week. Generally dry conditions are expected, while
temperatures are forecast to be a bit above average overall
with highs mostly in the 70s to low 80s. Going along those lines,
highs this afternoon should be mostly in the 70s. However,
western ND is forecast to reach the low 80s as it will be under
the influence of a thermal ridge and southerly surface flow. For
Monday, the pressure gradient will tighten in western ND from
low pressure over southern Canada and high pressure over western
Montana. This should produce breezy conditions for western
parts of the state during the afternoon hours. Otherwise,
expect mostly light winds through the week.

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 104 PM CDT Sun Sep 21 2025
Patchy fog will be possible late tonight into early Monday
morning over much of western and central North Dakota, but
confidence remains low as to exactly where the fog will form.
Therefore, will refrain for now from mentioning in any
individual TAF. Otherwise, VFR conditions will prevail.
