Montana Morning State News Headlines for Thursday, March 14
The Missoula valley still has over nine inches of snow on the ground, and how it melts will dictate any early spring flooding.
Missoula Water is alerting homeowners that some service lines have frozen and recommends that you run a thin stream of water from a faucet for the next few weeks. Service line repair is the responsibility of the homeowner.
Although flu numbers are down statewide, Missoula County still has a higher number of cases due to the higher population.
Mostly sunny in western Montana today, with highs near 40.
