BILLINGS — Snow ends and winds gradually decrease across Eastern Montana Wednesday evening as the storm system exits.
Light mountain snow has developed in southwest and south central Montana from Butte to the Beartooth foothills.
The air stays drier in the lower elevations thanks in part to increasing winds down the east mountain slopes around Livingston, Big Timber, Harlowton and the usually wind prone areas.
Fog is possible east of Billings thanks to the recent rain and snow.
The overall trend is dry with a gradual warm up each day through Sunday.
