Episode Narrative A low pressure system developing over the high plains of Montana and Wyoming, pushed southeast into the central plains during the evening hours of the 25th and into the morning hours of the 26th. As this occurred, strong frontogenetical forcing resulted in a band of moderate to heavy snow developing along the North Dakota and South Dakota border area, with snowfall rates upwards of three inches per hour. Storm total snow amounts across the southwest and south central, from Grant County through Dickey County, ranged from six to 18 inches by the morning of the 26th.

The heavy snow resulted in several highways being closed and county officials issuing numerous no travel advisories across southwest and south central North Dakota.
Event Narrative An estimated six inches of snow fell over southern Logan County.
