On Saturday. Ahead of a cold front<\/a>, well above average highs for this time of year with highs in the 50s across the southern half of the forecast area.<\/p>\n Depending on the timing of the cold frontal passage, and cloud<\/p>\n cover (not much anticipated at the moment), some areas across the<\/p>\n southern third of western and central North Dakota could flirt the<\/p>\n with lower 60s.<\/p>\n Behind the front<\/a>, winds will shift from out of the west southwest<\/p>\n to out of the northwest and become breezy through the afternoon<\/p>\n hours Saturday. The strongest winds are likely<\/a> to be found across<\/p>\n the west where sustained values of up to 25 mph and gusts up to 35<\/p>\n mph will be possible. These winds will overlap with dry conditions<\/p>\n across the southwest, potentially leading to an hour or two of<\/p>\n near critical fire weather conditions but given the time of year,<\/p>\n concerns are not overly high.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n North Dakota has surpassed 900 deaths due to complications from COVID-19, with more than 200 of the fatalities coming in just the past two weeks. Health officials confirmed five new deaths on Friday, bringing the statewide death toll from the virus to 902.

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals echoed a string of other courts in finding his campaign offered no evidence of any election fraud. Instead, the court said \u201cthe campaign’s claims have no merit.\u201d Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani called the election process fraudulent during oral arguments in a lower court last week, but offered no proof. Circuit Judge Stephanos Bibas, a Trump appointee, wrote Friday that \u201ccalling an election unfair does not make it so.\u201d<\/p>\n MILTON, Ga. (AP) \u2014 Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Democrats, Republicans and their supporters plan to flood Georgia neighborhoods with staff and volunteers to knock on doors and rally their bases to vote in the state’s pivotal U.S. Senate runoffs on Jan. 5. The two races will decide which party controls the Senate, and that has infused turnout efforts by the parties and outside groups with new urgency. They plan to supplement the in-person appeals with a fusillade of phone calls, text messages, mailers and ads also aimed at boosting turnout.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n FRESNO, Calif. (AP) \u2014 Republicans have picked up their 11th seat overall in the U.S. House and the third seat in California. David Valadao reclaimed the U.S. House seat he lost in the farm belt two years ago. The former congressman defeated Democratic Rep. TJ Cox, who ousted Valadao in the 21st Congressional District two years ago by 862 votes. Valadao had endorsed President Donald Trump after withholding his backing in 2016 \u2014 a risk in a swing district the president lost by 15 points four years ago. But he also stressed his independence, such as criticizing the Trump administration for family separations at the border and promoting his willingness to work across party lines.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The S&P 500 is closing a shortened session at a record high Friday as investors continue to look forward to the distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine and relief for the economy. The benchmark index rose 0.2%, led by gains in technology companies, and closed at an all-time high of 3,638. Optimism about a vaccine persists even as one vaccine candidate suffered a setback and cases of coronavirus remain at elevated levels. Meanwhile, retailers were hoping that their slumping sales get a boost from shoppers on Black Friday but early indications are that store traffic was light. The yield on the 10-year Treasury slipped to 0.85%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Justice Department is quietly amending its execution protocols, no longer requiring federal death sentences to be carried out by lethal injection and clearing the way for other methods like firing squads and poison gas. The amended rule, published Friday in the Federal Register, allows the U.S. government to conduct executions by lethal injection or use \u201cany other manner prescribed by the law of the state in which the sentence was imposed.\u201d A number of states allow other methods of execution. It remains unclear whether the Justice Department will seek to use any methods other than lethal injection for upcoming executions.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n (AP) The Trump administration is moving forward on gutting a longstanding federal protection for roughly 1,000 species of birds in the United States. Friday’s move comes despite objections from former federal officials and many scientists that billions more birds will likely perish in coming decades as a result. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service published its assessment of the rule, a final step that means the rollback could become official in 30 days. Oil and gas and other industries had sought the rollback, which sharply limits federal prosecution for industry practices that kill migratory birds. Industry operations kill an estimated 450 million to 1.1 billion birds annually.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) \u2014 The Walt Disney Co. is announcing plans to lay off 4,000 more workers in its theme parks division in California and Florida due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on the industry. The company has been limiting attendance at its parks and changing protocols to allow for social distancing. Officials haven’t specified the number of workers that would be affected in its Orlando theme parks. Disney\u2019s parks closed in March as the pandemic started spreading in the U.S. The Florida parks reopened in the summer, but the California parks have yet to reopen pending state and local government approvals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CSi Weather… TODAY\u2026Sunny.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum implored the state to remain vigilant in preventing infections on the Thanksgiving holiday as the state reported a downward tick in coronavirus cases. The Republican governor acknowledged in a Thanksgiving statement that the state still has a long way to go in containing the spread of the virus, saying \u201ca week of improved results does not make a trend.\u201d Health experts have warned that holiday gatherings could lead to a surge of infections. The Department of Health reported 952 cases, along with 10 deaths from COVID-19.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/JohnsonJoshVCsupt-300x202.png\")
