The spring storm continues to push through today. Snow will persist over the western mountains today, with increasing snow for the Bighorn Mountains. Snow showers and snow bands will be possible again for the lower elevations this afternoon and evening, though likely won’t be as strong as yesterday.

Another round of mountain snow is expected tonight through Tuesday as a shortwave passes through the region. Winter Weather Advisories are in effect for the Snowy and Sierra Madre Ranges for snow accumulations of 5 to 10 inches. Use caution if recreating in the mountains as gusty winds will lead to blowing snow and poor visibility.

Severe weather potential this afternoon into early overnight. Hail (up to 2″) and damaging winds (gusts of 60+ mph) will be the primary hazards, though a brief tornado can’t be ruled out.

Have a wonderful day and drive safe out there!
