The winter storm warning has been issued for Gallatin County and heavy snow is expected. Total snow accumulations could be anywhere from 4-10 inches. Heavier snow is expected at higher elevations and mountain passes.

The storm could make travel extremely difficult, and hazardous conditions could impact local commutes on Tuesday and Wednesday morning.

The greatest snowfall totals are expected in the southeastern end of the Gallatin Valley, including Bozeman. Scattered rain showers are expected Monday afternoon and evening. Monday night, the rain will turn to snow.

Be prepared for changing weather and road conditions, and make room for snow plows. If you commute to work, leave early and give yourself extra time to reach your destination.

If you need to travel, keep an emergency travel kit in your vehicle. You can stay up-to-date on the latest road conditions and closures by calling 5-1-1 or by visiting the Montana Road Report website.

Temperatures are expected to start warming again following the storm with highs in the 60s forecasted for next week.
