Snow Band, Gusty Northwest Winds Target Billings This Afternoon as Second Front Arrives

Overview

• The front reaches Billings around midday Thursday, spreading scattered snow from western into central areas before a late-day band develops.
• Brief visibility reductions are possible late afternoon into evening, especially across southeast Montana and north-central Wyoming.
• Mountain snow will accumulate with lighter amounts at lower elevations, and falling evening temperatures could ice stretches of I-90 in Sheridan County and US-212 in southeast Montana.
• West to northwest winds strengthen Thursday night into Friday, with stronger gusts in the western foothills including Livingston, Nye, and the US-191 corridor.
• A Wind Advisory is in effect for Livingston and Nye from late tonight through Saturday morning, followed by a much warmer, mainly dry pattern into at least mid next week.
