- New Year's Eve Ground Blizzard In The Red River Valley As Seen From Space
- Date posted
- 7 years ago
- Description
- During Monday, December 31, 2018, strong northerly winds exceeding 40 mph combined with fresh snow and rapidly falling temperatures well below zero led to ground blizzard conditions within the Red River Valley through much of the day.
One of NOAA's newest satellites, GOES-16, was able to "see" the blizzard from space highlighting how it was confined to the Red River Valley's lower elevation. The Valley has a tendency to increase winds parallel to its orientation, e.g. north-south. This phenomenon is relatively unique to the Red River Valley because the Valley's funneling effect can create these conditions more readily than others during the winter months.
