The southern ranges and mountains around Big Sky got 2-3” of new snow, and the mountains around Bozeman picked up a trace. SNOTEL sites in the southern areas have not reported since yesterday afternoon, so the mountains around West Yellowstone and Cooke City might have an additional 1-3”. Temperatures this morning are in the teens F. Wind overnight was out of the west to southwest at 5-15 mph with gusts of 20-30 mph. Light snow showers will continue today with temperatures in the low 20s F and wind out of the north to northeast at 5-15 mph. Snow showers through tonight will deliver 1-2” to the northern mountains and 2-4” to the southern mountains.

At 5 a.m. mountain temperatures are in the 20s F and winds are blowing 15-30 mph out of the W-SW.

Moisture arrives by late morning/early afternoon and the mountains should see 1-3” of new snow by this evening.

At 5 a.m. an inversion shows below freezing temperatures in the valleys and 34-37F in the mountains around Bozeman and Big Sky. In the southern ranges temperatures are 10-20F this morning and will reach the mid-30s this afternoon.
