(CNN)A significant winter storm will blast through the northern Rocky Mountains this weekend.
"This has the potential to be a historically significant early-season snow event," the National Weather Service in Great Falls, Montana, said.

Livestock is also at risk and the National Weather Service warns, "make sure livestock and pets also have the essentials that they will need during the storm."
A cold front with strong winds and near-record cold air will move through Idaho and Montana on Friday. It will be followed by another low-pressure system that will stall over the region Friday night through Sunday.
With unseasonably cold air already in place, wet, heavy snow is likely from the valleys to the mountain tops.
