BOZEMAN – A well timed Spring snowstorm produced areas of heavy wet snow across SW Montana mostly east of the divide Sunday afternoon through Monday morning.

The new snow did have a considerable amount of moisture which did produce property damage with broken tree limbs in downtown Bozeman.

The main storm system is spinning into North Dakota Monday afternoon but the upper-level trough sitting over the Pacific NW into Montana producing some lingering pockets of mainly mountain snow showers through early Tuesday morning.
