A record-breaking storm dumped nearly two feet of snow across the northern Rockies during the first weekend of fall - causing power outages and road closures in several communities in Montana. Montana Gov Steve Bullock declared an emergency Sunday, allowing the state to mobilize resources to areas affected by the early-season storm. Treacherous highway conditions were reported in northwestern parts of the state as 60 mph winds kicked up the fresh snowfall, reducing visibility on slippery roads. Winter weather warnings and advisories remained in effect for parts of western Montana, northern Idaho and northeast Washington on Sunday morning as snow continued to fall amid what the National Weather Service described as a 'historic winter storm'. Snow also was forecast for areas in Wyoming, Utah, Oregon, Nevada and California. 😱❄️☃️
