Back to back blizzards for the Bismarck-Mandan area and this last blizzard struck the area quick and hard.

The Christmas blizzard is becoming a reality and now the forecasters have a better grasp for conditions and tracking of this major weather event.

With many people planning to travel for the long Christmas weekend, it's important to stay weather ready and weather aware. The Severe Weather Action Team (SWAT) will help you stay on top of this changing weather situation. Here is what we know so far.

If you're dreaming of a white Christmas, you're going to get it. And a lot of it.

A Travel Alert has been issued for Bismarck, Valley City, Grand Forks, Minot, Devils Lake and surrounding areas.

Many people have another snow day as the Bismarck-Mandan area continues to have blizzard conditions so we decided to ask YOU to send us photos!

Traveling is slow going with additional snow being added to the 15-20 inches already fallen last week.

Depending on where you are, depends on how much snow you received with the first snow storm of the season.

The National Weather Service in Bismarck has issued a Winter Storm Warning for a majority of the state through Wednesday. This watch goes into effect Sunday (November 27th) night. (see update below) Depending on where you are will depend on the amount of snow you will receive. There is a very good chance you will get snow as this system is the first major snow system and snow fall of the season. R

If you've been wanting winter to arrive with snow and colder weather, your wish will come true this coming week.
