Blizzard stalls region: Deep freeze is next

Blizzard stalls region: Deep freeze is next The first blizzard of winter paralyzed North Dakota and parts of Minnesota on Monday, forcing trucks and plows from the roads, knocking out power to thousands and shutting down schools, businesses and medical facilities.

Last weekend’s unseasonably warm temperatures plummeted Monday and will keep falling through Friday morning, when the low could dip to 20 below, said Pete Speicher, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Grand Forks.

October temperatures are below average, but the date of its first hard freeze is behind schedule, meteorologists said. This weekend’s temperatures — highs are predicted in the mid-30s and low 40s — are lower than the average daily temperature of about 60 degrees this time of year, said Sam Walker, meteorologist for the National Weather Service.

Dig up and store summer bulbs after killing frost

I noticed a hint of frost on rooftops and lawns Thursday morning. Fortunately it wasn’t a hard freeze but it served as a reminder that winter is coming.
