Wet and cold backcountry conditions are anticipated Wednesday night through Friday morning. Cold rainfall is expected at lower elevations, with snow possible above 6000 feet. Overnight lows will be in the 20s and 30s in the backcountry. Potential hazards include hypothermia, and slippery roads and trails. Be sure to let others know of your travel plans, have an emergency plan and kit ready, have appropriate gear for the weather, and be ready for rapidly changing conditions.
A cold front will move south across the Northern Rockies through the day today, with showers and isolated thunderstorms trailing in its wake. High temperatures will remain below normal through Thursday thanks to the cold front, with overnight lows tonight falling near to below freezing.
Here's a reminder that we have TWO virtual spotter training opportunities this week. Anyone is welcome to attend any session. The session on Wednesday will focus on severe weather in the intermountain portions of the state while the session on Thursday will focus on severe weather along the Hi-Line.
