10-15 cm of snow expected by this afternoon.



A vigerous disturbance currently over central Washington state will track eastward today to lie in central Montana by this evening. The disturbance carries with it mild pacific air laden with moisture. At the same time a cold dense Arctic airmass is pushing southward across Alberta. The two airmasses will collide over southern Alberta creating conditions favourable for significant snowfall with accumulations in the 10-15 cm range expected. Areas in the southwestern foothills may see enhanced accumulations with the addition of an upslope component.
