A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY remains in effect for central and southwest Montana until 5 pm.
AN AVALANCHE WARNING has been issued for the Bridger, Northern Gallatin, and Northern Madison Ranges until tomorrow morning.
A WIND CHILL ADVISORY has been issued for Hill and Blaine Counties until tomorrow morning.
Periods of light snow will continue today, and the accumulations are expected to stay under four inches in the lower elevations and between four to six inches in the mountains. The passage of Tuesday's front will cool the temperatures down a few degrees. Tonight's temperatures will fall below zero and into the single digits
.
Thursday, we will get a break from the snow. A ridge of high pressure stationed north of us will briefly move inland and bring a little more sunshine to the state. Daytime highs stay in the 20s and 30s.
Friday, the ridge of high pressure will be broken down by a few weak disturbances, and that will help kick off-light snow for the mountains in western, southwest, and north-central Montana.
By the end of the weekend, strong southwest winds will bump forecast daytime highs into the 40s.
Happy Black History Month.
