Ablizzard bearing down on North Dakota promises to push Bismarck’s season snowfall total to a record.

The storm forecast to hit early Tuesday and last into early Thursday could drop 9-15 inches of snow on the capital city, according to the National Weather Service. Bismarck so far this season has received 95.4 inches of snow — the third-snowiest winter on record, and just 6.3 inches from a new high.

Records date back 148 years. Bismarck’s all-time mark is 101.6 inches in 1996-97.

The city is right on the edge between a high potential and medium potential for at least a foot of snow this week. “Major” storm impacts are expected in Bismarck all day Tuesday, intensifying to “extreme” impacts overnight into Wednesday, with “major” impacts again all day Wednesday before the storm weakens to “moderate” impacts overnight into early Thursday.
