West Fargo Weather & Climate
|
|
|
Southeastern North Dakota is located in the Great Plains region. Due to its distance from both mountains and oceans, this region has an extreme continental climate. Southeast North Dakota is known for its long, cold, snowy winters and warm to hot summers. Spring and autumn are short and highly variable seasons in the Great Plains. In general, North Dakota is quite dry, although summers can be quite humid with occasional thunderstorms. The southeastern corner of the state receives the most precipitation, more than 20 inches per year. Springtime flooding is a relatively common event in this region, due to the springtime melt and eventual runoff of rivers in the area. Other meteorological events can include hail, blizzards, polar fronts, tornadoes and high-velocity straight-line winds.
