Storm Warning: Montana Could See 10″ Of Urgently Needed Snow
The mountains of western Montana might score 8 to 10 inches of fresh snow by Sunday afternoon. Warnings and advisories have been issued for just about every western county, but some higher elevations might receive nearly a foot of snow.
Montana has had some cold temperatures so far this winter, but for the most part it's been 'warm' and we have not received nearly enough snow. Many SNOTEL locations are reading less than half of average snow water equivalent. Some good snowfall is exactly what we need.
