A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for Gallatin County as a late-season cold front brings snow back to Montana, with impacts expected late Wednesday through Thursday.
After a winter with little snow, Montana could finally see a change. The National Weather Service predicts colder temperatures and a major snowstorm moving across the state starting Tuesday.
A powerful winter storm is expected to sweep across Montana, bringing snow, strong winds, and frigid temperatures. Residents should prepare for possible delays and hazardous road conditions.
After temperatures in the mid 50s this week, the southern mountains of Montana could get a welcomed blast of fresh snow by Friday night. The only downer is that significant winds will probably accompany this new storm front, so back country adventurists need to use caution.
