Fargo Moorhead Climate

Fargo Moorhead gets lots of coverage for the cold, but we enjoy four full seasons and play hard through them all. Fact is, the weather is generally temperate with lots of sunshine all year long. Our springs are warm and bright, summers are pleasant and autumns are delightfully crisp and cool. Winters are cold but dry and usually include beautiful snowfalls that dust the trees. Each snowfall averages less than an inch.
