Epically Bad Montana Road Conditions Brewing for Monday
Warm temps leading into a sudden cold snap and many inches of snow do not bode well for most of Montana. Wet roads freezing overnight and a constant stream of snow, AND some gusty winds will create the perfect storm for terrible conditions.
If you must travel or commute on Monday (just about anywhere in Montana), plan ahead and definitely allow for additional travel time. Weather issues could plague the state with pretty bad road conditions.

SLOW DOWN AND DON'T BE IN A HURRY. Having patience, slowing down and being as visible as possible will be key to staying safe on the roads. USE YOUR HEADLIGHTS while driving and give PLENTY of room to other cars.
