Snowmageddon. For the last week NOAA and the press have been pounding the epic storm drum here in western Montana. We are on the edge of said storm this evening. Now we get to see what mother nature, La Nina and NOAA have in common.
Just for giggles I’ll put up the last snow pack graphs from NRCS now that they are back up again and in a couple days we’ll go back for another look and see how things are looking after this storm.
