Winter storm slams north-central US

Posted: Updated:
STANFORD, Montana -

Winds gusted to 70 miles per hour near Stanford, Montana, last evening, while more than a foot of snow fell in parts of Big Sky Country.

Farther east, the storm has left a foot of snow in parts of North Dakota, with drifts reportedly three feet deep.

Now, the snow is pushing into Minnesota, where two to four inches have already fallen in many areas, with the heaviest snow expected this Monday evening in southern Minnesota.

Next, the storm will move into Chicago, likely producing their biggest snow of the season.

They haven't seen much, to this point.

Our local impacts will vary from nearly none to the north, to several inches near Lima and Findlay.
