Due to the combination of strong winds, low relative humidity, and dry fuels, a Fire Weather Watch is in effect Thursday afternoon through the evening for central South Dakota. Shifting winds will be a concern for any ongoing fires.
Highest gusts will be Thursday afternoon into Thursday night with gusts of 50 to 60+ mph. High winds may move loose debris, damage property, and cause power outages.
A storm system will bring the potential for accumulating snow and a wintry mix of rain and snow to the region this weekend. Low confidence in exact strength and track of the system, therefore, total snowfall amounts and locations of highest accumulations are uncertain.
