Billings, MT – The National Weather Service in Billings is alerting travelers to expect periods of light snow across southern and central Montana through Sunday morning, with minor winter impacts likely on area roads.
According to the National Weather Service, multiple rounds of light snow will affect lower elevations, with the best chance for accumulation Friday night through Saturday evening. Mountain areas will see heavier snow, while the valleys and plains experience occasional light snow mixed with breezy conditions, creating localized blowing snow and slick travel.
While accumulations are expected to remain light, forecasters caution that even minor snowfall can create slippery conditions along I-90 and I-94, especially during the evening and early morning hours. Visibility may be reduced at times due to blowing snow.
Drivers are urged to use extra caution, slow down, and check current road reports at 511mt.net for Montana or wyoroad.info for Wyoming before traveling this weekend. Conditions should gradually improve by Sunday afternoon as the system moves east.
