As snow melt continues, flooding concerns rise in north-central Montana.
Several flood warnings and advisories are in effect across the state.
A Flood Warning is in effect for Fergus County due to snow melt along the Missouri River in the northeastern part of the county. This includes the James Kipp Campground and nearby boat ramp close to the Fred Robinson Bridge.
Cascade, Chouteau, Pondera, Teton, Judith Basin, and Fergus counties are under flood advisories Monday until 8 p.m.
Some impacted roadways include Montana Highways 80 and 223 around Fort Benton, Coal Mine Road near Big Sandy, the Liberty County Line Road, and Blackfoot Coulee Road near Simms.
Flooding is not limited to the north-central region, however, as floodwaters have shut down Interstate 90 between Hardin and the Wyoming line.
The Montana Department of Transportation issued a flood warning for that stretch of highway.
A Dense Fog Advisory has also been issued for Cascade, Chouteau, Teton, Judith Basin, and Fergus counties as well as the southern Rocky Mountain Front.
Visibilities are down to one quarter mile or less at times. The NWS reported the Advisory would be in effect until 11 a.m. Monday.
