KEY MESSAGES

- Scattered light snow continues to slowly diminish this afternoon and evening. Minimal additional accumulations are expected.

- There is a 20 percent chance for winter impacts Tuesday into Wednesday of next week.

..Potential for Snow Next Week

Looking into Tuesday and Wednesday, a weak ridge builds into eastern Montana and western North Dakota ahead of an upper low that is expected to track along the baroclinic zone. An elongated area of FGen will form along the temperature gradient, bringing a chance for light to moderate snow where the band forms. Ensembles show very little in the way of spatial agreement, with a large number of possible solutions with regards to snowfall potential. The one thing that is consistent, however, is that where the band forms, there will be the potential for winter impacts and accumulating snow.

Scattered light snow showers and flurries are becoming less frequent across the area heading into midday. There has been a trend towards at least some partial clearing, with a scattered to broken MVFR cloud deck. Look for variable ceilings ranging from low end MVFR to VFR at KDVL, KGFK, and KFAR, with slightly more persistent MVFR conditions at KBJI and KTVF. Heading into the evening and overnight, clouds are expected to increase slightly, with broken MVFR ceilings across much of the area.
