Concerning...Heavy snow=20 Valid 151646Z - 152045Z SUMMARY...Moderate snow will advance westward through mid-afternoon. DISCUSSION...Moderate to locally heavy snow is currently being observed near the North Dakota/Minnesota border and vicinity. This area of enhanced snowfall is associated with a westward moving upper-level trough which has now wrapped around the parent upper-level low. Moderate to locally heavy snow will continue to advance westward through mid-afternoon before starting to weaken as the shortwave trough slows and eventually stalls as it gets absorbed by the upper low.=20 In addition to the moderate to heavy snow, some visibility reductions can be expected amid surface winds of 25 to 30 mph and gusts to 40 mph within the tight pressure gradient on the west side of the surface low. Despite weakening snowfall rates this afternoon/evening, blowing snow and associated visibility restrictions are expected to persist through the overnight period as the surface low moves slowly northeast and the pressure gradient remains across the region. ...Bentley.. 12/15/2022 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5q3D8czcxVrOOPPFYnNlqWfb-6gSNNN_-BPbkn-PDco3x7nRfs0PNh7oEiJq49AcSve7Fe1ck= DtGF65GS1jYeFU-m3I$ for graphic product...
