North Central Montana: How Cold Is It?
If you're reading this, congratulations! You've made it through what should be the coldest night of Montana's latest cold snap! Don't get me wrong, overnight lows will be in the -20f's to -30f's again tonight and tomorrow night before we begin a slow warming trend back to the other side of zero early next week.
Here is the preliminary list of overnight lows, as of 5:00am. Remember, though, the coldest readings usually occur just after sunrise, so many of these numbers may change in the next few hours:
