Heavy snow fell throughout the day on Tuesday across the Rockies leading to some impressive totals for parts of Wyoming! The Black Hills of South Dakota also saw up to half of a foot of snow! Snow alerts have been discontinued and most snow showers will exit the region (specifically South Dakota) this evening. Those driving through mountain passes and roadways through these regions should be on the look out for potential impacts, but a lot of melting will occur today.
