Big Horn County, Montana – Snow showers over Aberdeen Hill are reducing visibility and creating slushy driving conditions along Interstate 90 early Tuesday.
According to a Tuesday morning update from the U.S. National Weather Service office in Billings, light snow was falling over Aberdeen Hill around 7:47 a.m., with showers impacting travel on I-90 between Lodge Grass, Montana, and Sheridan, Wyoming. The weather service warned of reduced visibility and slick, slushy spots, especially over higher elevations.
Traffic cameras from the Wyoming Department of Transportation showed snow-covered shoulders and wet pavement in the affected stretch, with blowing snow briefly obscuring the roadway at times. While accumulations appeared light, conditions were uneven, with higher hills seeing more snow than surrounding lower terrain.
The National Weather Service noted that impacts were expected to be most noticeable during the early morning hours as snow showers moved through the area. Drivers were advised to use caution, reduce speeds, and allow extra following distance when traveling across Aberdeen Hill.
This stretch of I-90 is a key commuter and freight corridor connecting southern Montana with northern Wyoming, and even light snow can quickly affect travel during morning hours, particularly for drivers unfamiliar with winter conditions in higher terrain.
No closures or formal travel restrictions were reported as of Tuesday morning, but officials emphasized that conditions can change quickly in snow showers. Motorists were encouraged to check the latest road conditions through state transportation agencies before traveling.
Additional updates may be issued if snow showers persist or visibility worsens.
