FARGO (KFGO) - The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) and the North Dakota Highway Patrol have extended the No Travel Advisory for areas in northeastern North Dakota due to near zero visibility and icy road conditions. Cities included in the No Travel Advisory are Grand Forks, Grafton, Pembina and surrounding areas.
A No Travel Advisory remains in effect for portions of south central ND including Jamestown, Valley City, Ellendale and surrounding areas. Motorists in these areas should not travel as blowing and drifting snow is creating hazardous driving conditions, especially at bridges or sheltered areas.
A Travel Alert remains in effect for southeastern North Dakota due to snow covered and slippery roads and blowing snow creating reduced visibility. Areas included are Fargo, Wahpeton and surrounding areas. A Travel Alert means conditions are such that motorists can still travel in these areas, but should be advised of rapidly changing conditions. Motorists are encouraged to reduce speeds, wear seat belts and drive according to the conditions.
All travelers are encouraged to monitor road conditions as weather conditions occur and use caution while traveling.
