Blizzard

The National Weather Service is forecasting heavy snow for the Missoula area from Sunday afternoon through Sunday night, February 23.

Western South Dakota ranchers have buried the tens of thousands of cattle that died in an early October blizzard. Now they are figuring out how to dig themselves out of a financial hole after many lost a quarter or more of their herds.

Winter's forecast for Western Montana may be milder than usual or colder than usual. We could have more snow, or less snow, depending on who's providing the information.
