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.
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.
Just because it's been so unbearably cold, doesn't mean that Montana's in a much better place for winter snowpack. Much needed snow is headed for some mountain ranges in southwest Montana.
Well that escalated quickly. Nobody ever said Montana weather was boring. Some mountains in southwest Montana may get hammered this weekend with 10 to 20 inches of snow piling up by Sunday afternoon.
Some parts of southern Montana may get up to 10 fresh inches of snow this weekend. Southern Gallatin County, the Beartooth Foothills and the Red Lodge areas should be the winners of the end-of-season storm.
