Residents in Eastern Glacier, Western Toole, Central Pondera, Eastern Toole, Liberty, Western and Central Chouteau County, Bears Paw Mountains, Southern Blaine, and Fergus County below 4500ft should prepare for a Winter Weather Advisory, effective immediately until 6:00 AM MDT Monday, October 12.

The National Weather Service in Great Falls has issued this advisory, forecasting snow accumulations of 3 to 5 inches in lower elevations, and 5 to 10 inches in the mountains. Gusts up to 40 mph are also expected. Travel conditions could become difficult, and the combination of gusty winds and heavy snow may lead to downed tree branches and isolated power outages.
