...SNOW WILL DIMINISH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...BUT MORE SNOW TO
RETURN LATER THIS WEEK...
Snow will continue to diminish from west to east this afternoon.
Some pockets of freezing rain/drizzle will be possible, especially
as snow diminishes. Travel may still be hazardous due to snow
covered roads at some locations.
Confidence continues to increase that a more significant winter
storm will impact the Northern Plains Wednesday night through
Thursday. At the moment, the most favored area for heavy snow is
from along the Highway 200 corridor south to the South Dakota
border. Much uncertainty remains regarding exact amounts and
specific locations. Monitor the forecast and prepare for the
possibility of significant winter weather.
