If driving, slow down, use your headlights, and leave plenty of
\ndistance ahead of you. Use extra caution at intersections and
\nrailroad crossings.<\/p>\n

Forecast…<\/p>\n

.MONDAY NIGHT…Cloudy. Widespread fog. Lows 15 to 20. South winds<\/p>\n

around 10 mph.<\/p>\n

.TUESDAY…Mostly cloudy. Widespread fog in the morning. Highs in<\/p>\n

the lower 30s. South winds 10 to 15 mph.<\/p>\n

TUESDAY NIGHT…Mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows in the lower<\/p>\n

20s. South winds 10 to 15 mph.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

.WEDNESDAY…Mostly cloudy. 30 percent chance of snow in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

Highs in the mid 30s. South winds 5 to 10 mph.<\/p>\n

.WEDNESDAY NIGHT…Mostly cloudy with a 40 percent chance of snow, possibly mixed with freezing rain in the Jamestown area, 50 percent in the Valley City area.\u00a0 Lows 5 to 10 above.<\/p>\n

.THURSDAY…Mostly cloudy. Slight chance of light snow.\u00a0Patchy blowing and drifting snow. Highs around 15.<\/p>\n

.THURSDAY NIGHT… Mostly cloudy. Patchy blowing and drifting<\/p>\n

snow. Lows 5 to 10 below.<\/p>\n

.FRIDAY…Partly sunny. Highs 5 to 10 above.<\/p>\n

.FRIDAY NIGHT…Mostly cloudy. Slight chance of snow in the<\/p>\n

evening. Lows around 10 below.<\/p>\n

.SATURDAY…Partly sunny. Highs near zero.<\/p>\n

.SATURDAY NIGHT…Decreasing clouds. Lows around 15 below.<\/p>\n

.SUNDAY…Mostly sunny. Highs near zero.<\/p>\n

There still remains chance for a winter system to impact the
\nregion around in the Wednesday to Thursday timeframe. Potential
\nhazards from this system include light icing, blowing snow,
\naccumulating snowfall, and a sharp decrease in temperatures. This
\nmay impact travel across the region.<\/p>\n

There is high confidence in much colder temperatures starting
\nthis coming weekend. Widespread subzero temperatures and breezy winds
\nwill contribute to an extended period of hazardous wind chills.
\nThis increases the potential for cold weather impacts like hypothermia and frostbite.<\/p>\n

Many locations will see high temperatures at or a bit below zero. Of additional concern is the northerly breeze with these systems, which will bring very frigid wind chills.<\/p>\n

\"\"Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0\u00a0 As a continuation of ongoing partnership with the Jamestown Fire Department, and in a show of support for the critical work the first responders do, Cavendish Farms donated $50,000 towards a new ladder truck.<\/p>\n

Mark Urquhart, a retired volunteer firefighter and Director Western Agriculture, Raw Procurement for Jamestown\u2019s Cavendish Farms plant, says, \u201cThe previous ladder truck was at the end of its useful life but is required to protect high structures in Jamestown, like our frozen potato processing plant.\u00a0 The Jamestown Fire Department is an important community partner for us. We conduct hazardous materials training together each year for the safety of our operations and employees. We also have several employees who are current or retired volunteered firefighters.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the Jamestown Fire Department has already received the new ladder truck, they are still in need of community support to help offset the cost to taxpayers. The ladder truck cost $1 million and the goal is to have a third of the cost paid by local donors and businesses.<\/p>\n

City Fire Chief Jim Reuther says, \u201cI want to thank Cavendish Farms for their generous donation. It helps us get closer to covering the cost of this critical piece of equipment.\u00a0 We\u2019re hoping additional community partners will join with Cavendish Farms to show their support for the work we do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Urquhart adds, \u201cWe encourage other organizations and groups to support this fundraising drive for the good of our entire community.\u201d<\/p>\n
