The valleys of southwest Montana are showing signs of breaking the inversions, if this happens expect temperatures to warm into the mid and upper 30s.

A low pressure system bringing pacific moisture moves in Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.

Mountains will generally see all snow with this with around 1"-4" possible over the passes.

Valleys could see a mix of snow, rain/snow or freezing rain just depending on temperatures.

The best chance for precipitation to fall as all snow will be for locations across northwest Montana.

There is a small chance that valleys could see 1-2" of snow Tuesday night.

High pressure will rebuild to end the week, expect highs in the 30s to low 40s Thursday and Friday.
